Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

Rysy is the highest mountain of Poland and one of the highest of all Tatra Mountains. The peak is located at the border of Poland and Slovakia. It is accessible both from Polish and well as from Slovakian side.

I took this photos around 1h to just before sunset, on the border between Poland and Slovakia in the tatra mountains. Just before one of the highest points in the high tatras, Bukowina Tatrzanska.

Photography Tips

Make sure you’re well informed about the route you’re gonna take in these mountains. Don’t start this if you haven’t any climb and hike experience. The weather changes very fast on these heights (1500 -2500m), so make sure you check the weather multiple times before your start hiking.

Travel Information

If you’re an experienced hiker, you can reach this with nice weather in 4 to 5h walking. The route from south (Slovakia) is less exposed and passes next to a mountain hut, about an hour from the top.
