Discover Biały Dunajec

• Hikes to Gubałówka are listed as taking two and three hours respectively; another route leads to Kuny in three and a half hours.
• The cycling routes include a loop of about 15 kilometres and two tours rated as difficult.
• The two-hour walk leads from Sołtystwo through the Biały Dunajec stream valley towards Poronin.

For a two-hour hike, the route from Biały Dunajec to Gubałówka passes through Tatary and Ząb. It follows the Pogórze Gubałowskie ridge and offers views of the Tatra Mountains and the surrounding area. Another hike also reaches Gubałówka, but goes via Leszczyny, Sierockie, Rolów Wierch and Ząb, and is listed as taking three hours. The two routes therefore share the same destination but differ in their sequence of places and stated duration.

A longer alternative leads to Kuny via Stołowe, Gliczarów Górny, Gliczarów Dolny and Wojtusiców Wierch. This route is listed as taking three and a half hours. You can choose between two hikes with Gubałówka as their destination and a longer tour to Kuny. The named places along the way help distinguish the routes without reducing them to a single destination.

A cycling route of about 15 kilometres goes via Gliczarów Dolny and Gliczarów Górny, then returns to Biały Dunajec. Unlike the two longer routes rated as difficult, it ends where it started. Another difficult tour starts at the municipal office, covers 12 kilometres and 300 metres of elevation gain, and is listed as taking three hours to ride. It heads towards Gliczarów Górny.

The 20-kilometre route to Bukowina Tatrzańska also starts at the municipal office. It is likewise rated as difficult and has 300 metres of elevation gain; the stated riding time is two and a half hours. Several details are therefore relevant when comparing the two difficult tours: they have the same elevation gain and difficulty rating, but differ in distance, riding time and destination. By contrast, the route of about 15 kilometres returns to Biały Dunajec.

If cycling is important to your trip, consider more than just the distance. The details on difficulty, elevation gain, riding time and destination together give a more complete picture of each tour. For the two difficult routes, you can also consider whether you would prefer to head towards Gliczarów Górny or include Bukowina Tatrzańska as a destination in your plans.

The two-hour walk, “Spacer po Białym Dunajcu,” starts in Sołtystwo, the oldest part of the village. From there, it leads through the Biały Dunajec stream valley and along Jana Pawła II, Kościuszki, Miłośników Podhala and Piłsudskiego streets towards Poronin. This sequence of neighbourhood, stream valley and streets offers a different way to explore Biały Dunajec than the hikes to Gubałówka or Kuny.

Biały Dunajec is also home to the Roman Catholic Parish of NMP Królowej Aniołów, or Our Lady Queen of Angels in English. It is a named place in the village and, alongside the routes, another point of interest for travellers who are also interested in local culture.

The Toco-Land ski station in Biały Dunajec is described as having a drag lift and a 1,000-metre downhill run. If you are planning a visit, check in advance whether it is currently operating and accessible. This keeps the winter sports option in your plans without treating the stated details as a guarantee that a visit will be possible.
