Thanks for watching :) Yes! We’ve filmed in Poland for a bit where Karolina is from and actually this video finishes the series 🥳 Poland is like a twin to Indonesia!!! 🇵🇱🇮🇩
I'm really jealous that you were able to stay in Dolina Pięciu Stawów shelter. I don't care how many stars hotel have, nothing can beat that location and atmosphere. Especialy in the hiking season, it's so hard to even book the place. We tried half a year ahead and fail. Even if price will double it still will be my favourite place in Poland.
That’s very true! The experience is quite unique and no matter what it was just amazing! We were shocked how good was organised everything 😍 The food was delicious too! I hope that one day you’ll manage to book it - we booked it like 2 months in advance but it was a low season in the late March 😄
Just a small tip - he colours of the trails mean nothing. It's just that the same colours can't cross to avoid confusing hikers and that's why there are several of them 😉
Yes, that’s what we completely understand why after our trip 😍🏔️ It really gave me the goosebumps since the last time I’ve seen such breathtaking views was in NZ!!! 🇳🇿
Thank you so much! We loved the views ourselves too! Definitely would want to come back during the summertime because it will completely change the perspective :)
Great to see your video! I'm in love with Tatras for over 40years, best place to visit in PL. Hope to meet You some day on a trail. Best regards from Warsaw!🇵🇱
Our pleasure! We loved that Apple Crumble so much (Szarlotka) 🍏😋 So we’ve had it twice in this video! In the evening we ordered Bigos (Sauerkraut with various sorts of smoked meats), Schabowy (breaded pork cotelet) and Szarlotka x2 🙏
Yeah, we totally agree! This time around it was late March and we were surprised with the snow, however people say it’s quite normal :) Probably you won’t see the snow-capped mountains during the summer time but the Morskie Oko view will be even more stunning!
Exactly! You always have to be considerate as there is a thaw of sorts (or a rapid rise in temperature) but apparently some people didn't mind going onto the lake surface which can be dangerous haha. We feel like you always have to be considerate of the surroundings because you never know what can happen 😇
Great video! Absolutely stunning. Reminds me of my time in Alberta, Canada. You both should check that Province out! Especially Banff and Jasper National parks! Stunning parks there.
Thanks for the tips! We would love to go to Canada one day because hearing all the recommendations the nature is stunning over there 😍🌲 Just put your suggestions on our list!
Wow such beautiful views. I would love to visit both in the winter because of these absolutely magical views. I am truly in awe and appreciate this video so much. And of course in the summer or late spring I would love to see the lakes and i guess wild flowers? I have a few questions: 1. Are there any wild animals like wolves or bears or something in the woods and mountains anywhere there? 2.Where would the most accessible hotel be? Would that be somewhere near Morskie Oko if someone wanted to stay with a bit of mobility issues? 3. Is there no other way to get to the 5 lakes but by hiking? I wonder how the staff of the shelter gets in and out every morning? Perhaps that cable car? And is there any other way for the public to get up there without hiking? 4. Just wondering if you possibly took note of the amount of steps it took to get up there? I'm imaging like between 20,000 -30,000... and thanks for the video. Because it is so unique it might be my most favourite video of yours, thus far.
You're absolutely right - each season is perfect for exploring, just depends on what you expect 🥰 And regarding your questions: 1. yes and no, it's a tricky one! there's plenty of animals but you won't see many haha 2. you can sleep at the shelter at Morskie Oko but most of the people stay in Zakopane -> you need to take a 30 minutes bus / taxi to get to the beginning of the Tatra National Park, however, people with some mobility issues would probably need to be prepared for some other solutions... 3. the shelter of the 5 lakes is the highest one in Poland and the only way up is to hike - unfortunately there's no cable car (I believe the staff must sleep there for some time) 4. we actually made around 30,000 steps but if you come during the summertime, you can take a shortcut! which would be a bit quicker! hope it helps :) MANY THANKS FOR WATCHING ❤️

It gets quite busy - especially over summertime! We actually booked it way more in advance (like 1-2 months) to secure the spots on their main website :) piecstawow.pl/rezerwacje/?hotresevent=hotres_step1 But we went there in March so it was a bit easier to get a room!
Hi from Mexico, I’ll be traveling to Poland in August, is it going to be difficult for me if I only speak English? I’ve seen in your videos that pretty much, no one speaks English over there
Hmmm, it’s a tricky one because in bigger cities you won’t have issues 100% but in local areas you might struggle a bit 😉 But Google translate will help you a lot and people are so friendly too so I wouldn’t worry too much!
