Many of the most beautiful cycle paths run along river valleys flanked by mountains and hills. They follow ancient trade routes, through little towns full of beautiful historic buildings. The routes takes us along the old towpaths, just above the water level, where for centuries horses pulled boats and rafts upstream. Although these routes lead into the mountains, the cycle path along the river is gentle and pleasant. A well known attraction on the Dunajec are the countless wooden rafts moving up and down the river. A few years ago the opening of new border crossing made the paths through the Pieniny hills on the Slovakian side along the famous gorge accessible to visitors.

The cab should not cost more than about 60-70 zl (€ 17-20,-) (please be sure to check with the cab driver in advance). You can get to the center very cheaply by train - the new airport train station "Krakow Lotnisko" is located just behind the parking garage opposite the terminal. Trains leave every half hour, in 17 minutes you can get to the main station for only 8 PLN (about € 2,-).

Driving in the centre is really complicated so if you decide to arrive by car, use GPS-navigation. The best way is to take the following route: Pasternik - Opolska - al. 29 Listopada - Warszawska (do not miss it the turn aft er the bridge over the railway!) - Basztowa - Westerplatt e - left to Kopernika st. where you will fi nd the gateway to the hotel parking.
