Yesterday my mom, my aunt, Liam, and I took a day trip to the mystical Tatra Mountains, a stunning mountain range separated between Poland and Slovakia. Since it was a 3hr drive from Bielsko (where we are now), we got an early start. One of the fastest ways to get to the Tatra was to drive through Slovakia, so I guess you could say that we saw another country… the 40-minute Slovakian farmland views were quite beautiful. Driving through the Slovakian Countryside Our entry into the Tatra mountains was through the Polish ski-resort town of Zakopane, a very unique place steeped in the culture of the Górale, the Highlander people of Poland. Driving by a tavern Little cheese making hut We started our day with a hike from Wierch Poroniec, which, at 1,105 metres, is one of the highest entry points into the Tatra Mountains. Our goal from here was Rusinowa Meadow, a large sheep grazing area which offers stunning views of the Tatras after just around 1hr of hiking....
