In February, all this is waiting for lovers of winter holidays. Yes, maybe not all ski stations are open already, many smaller ones are open and the rest will be open from February 12th. Nobody advertises an open ski lift, restaurant or guesthouse, but after entering Podhale you can notice that life returns to normal.
On Krupówki Street, you must visit the JAGA confectionery and the beautiful GÓRALECZKA restaurant. Take advantage of the beautiful weather in Zakopane and Podhale, you will support freedom and those who boldly defend freedom. Opening the slopes and hotels from the 12th is proof that Góralskie Veto and skiers who went skiing to many shopping malls to show the absurdity of closed slopes. See what happened in Galeria Katowicka. It worked, now only the government has to understand that tourists have to eat somewhere after hiking and adventures in the mountains. Why is the Polish government so illogical? Restaurants must be open all over Poland!!!
