I love "Kolej krzesełkowa 4 os." as a name of the slope as it literally means "Chair lift for 4 people" Loved the video Robbie, glad you liked our part of Europe
Zakopane is fine for teaching kids how to ski. It is a nice little town. You have other things to do as well like sledding with dogs, snowmobiles, outdoor heated thermal pools, or the ice park with the maze which kids would like or the Tatra National park where you can ski down the black runs. We stayed at the hotel at the bottom of Poland Szymoszkowa and it was a nice chilled few days. But it does not even begin to scratch the itch if you are only after skiing. Even the resorts in Turkey or Greece are bigger.
I used to manage a hostel in Zdiar, half way between Lomnica and Zakopane. Been to both places many times for skiing and pubs. And have danced in Humno more times than I care to share. Thanks for a great video and taking me down memory lane. Slovakia will always be a home for me. Edit: For those who see this. Robbie is 100% correct. It is absolutely the cheapest place to ski. If you have NEVER done it before then my old village has super basic slopes for even cheaper. Theres lots of cheap acommodation in the village also. The two slopes are called Strachan (Mega basic, perfect to learn) and Bachledka
Kasprowy Wierch is the only thing worth skiing around Zakopane, but like you said, it's not for beginners. There are only two chairlifts, but the terrain is actually very good and the lifts lines are short.

So glad you flew to Tatranská Lomnica via Poprad-Tatry. Most people don’t even know that the airport exists and often give up on visiting Tatranská Lomnica simply because the journey from Krakow or Bratislava is a bit too long. Next time hopefully the wind is better,try pirohy, the Slovak version of Polish pierogi! There’s a mountain/tram to Strypske Pleso down the road as well with another great hotel, Kempinski and GoPass Ski Area.
Skiing in Zakopane is definitely nothing compared to larger and greater resorts, but it is perfect for beginners and casual skiing (coming from someone who learnt to ski on Szymoszkowa). It defo is suited more to a winter holiday in general (mixing skiing with walks, shopping and other activities), rather than an all out ski holiday. I do love how idealic the area is though, and they have a strong traditional highland culture! And youre not wrong, people seem to have no sense of others on the slopes, have seen far too many crashes over the years on Szymoszkowa. Great Vid!
How nothing ? You should visit Kasprowy 1900 altitude if you are more advanced skier. This is the highest mountain availabe for skiers in Poland with Alpine views and experience.
You should definitely ski the Kasprowy Wierch. It’s inside National Park, probably not included in your multi pass, but it’s really worth to spend a day there.
@@RobbieKnox It is often closed due to wind gusts or not enough natural snow (it’s national park - no artificial snow). But when open it’s a beauty. Actually it’s the only place I love to ski in Poland. But it’s too small and weather dependent to be a destination for someone coming from far away.
@@RobbieKnox It is not too tough there in Kasprowy Wierch. The climate and views are Alpine there with heights around 2k meters. That is the only place in Tatra that the slopes are so good and resemble the alps. But there are only two of them , still worth it. You climb up with a cabin car, then spend a day there on two different ski lifts and slopes. And they are reddish. And then you can ski all the way down to Zakopane. Great run, I recommend it.
Cool video! Next time you should try out bigger resorts in Poland such as Szczyrk or Czarna Góra-Sienna. They should be much better pure skiing-wise :)
Wow! I went to Zakopane for two nights in October and it looks so different in the snow. Beautiful hiking in the Tatras and a decent spa there too. Hope you tried Oscypek while you were there Robbie!
You actually quite nailed the pronunciation of both "halušky" and "bryndza"! And no, the sour milk is not a wind up 😂 By the way, if you ever consider returning to ski in Slovakia, I'd recommend skiing in the Low Tatras (Nízke Tatry) rather than High Tatras (Vysoké Tatry, which is where Tatranská Lomnica is). Low Tatras have Slovakia's best ski resort named Jasná. High Tatras are far better for hikes though, if you ever fancy that.
Best ski resorts close to Zakopane are Białka Tatrzańska and Jurgów. You have more slopes there with different difficulty, especially in Białka, bigger and better chairlifts, etc. Harenda is cool too, not for the beginners tho.
Man you have been skiing in the wrong resorts, when in Zakopane the best skiing experience is Alpine Kasprowy resort with magnificent views, very long and picturesque pistes and restaurant on top of 2000m mountain with delicious food. :)
I’d have loved to have gone there. We had a mixed ability group though and I worried that some might struggle there as I heard it wasn’t suitable for beginners. Is that accurate?
@@RobbieKnox yep its rather suited for intermediate to advanced riders, thank you for your brilliant job showing Tatra mountains to British people though :)
I went once to Zakopane. As a Swiss skier, I was not too impressed by the skiing... but I was in the company of a charming Polish girl, so I was not frustrated at all! But the day ticket was cheap alright! The one for foreigners was significantly more expensive than the one for locals, but was only the equivalent of about half a pound, and it allowed to cut queues, using the short cut also used by ski teachers and their clients. A bit embarrassing, though! But... that was March 1982, during Jaruzelski and Solidarnosk time. BTW, a bottle of vodka was then also less than a pound!
@@RobbieKnox Yeah! I watched your video. Kudos , by the way. Zakopane had not much night fun at the time. The majority of "street lights" were pictures of the Virgin, on the sills of many windows and lighted. That was indicating in their .... Polish way, that the family was against the Jaruzelski communist regime.
@@st-ex8506 That's a crazy experience to have, I assume travelling here during that time must have been weird, also considering how much poorer it was from the WE.
@@nifiz158 My university, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology had an exchange student program with its Warsaw counterpart, and I studied there for a term... It was indeed quite a weird experience! I have so many anecdote from this stay, which could not possibly happen anymore...
@@st-ex8506 Yeah, you came from one of the richest countries in Europe to the one behind the iron curtain, in the most difficult time in our recent history, first few months of martial law--every border closed, product supplies halted, empty shops, army vehicles on the streets, curfew... That was surely hell of a ride:)
Nice video...Zakopane has far more to offer...those are two smaller slopes that are side by side to each other...next try Kasprowy for some Alpine experiance...Nosal is also more advanced...
Robbie lad, my boys going on a ski trip with his school (1st time) have you got any tips on kit? Whether it’s best to buy or rent? And which brands would be the best/affordable/suitable for a first timer? Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🫶
Decathlon is great for cheap stuff - thermals, etc. I bought all my kids’ stuff there. You’ll probably need to buy (or borrow) the clothes and goggles, but he can hire skis/boots/helmet in the resort. The other thing is that as people only normally go skiing one week a year it might be that someone you know has clothes they’re not using. I tend to lend out my kids’ ski gear to friends a lot.
Yeah, I looked at visiting that on this trip but it was difficult to get to for a day compared to Tatranska Lomnica. I need to go back and do a trip just visiting those two resorts.
Great info thank you! I checked this and other videos after and subscribed. I was wondering when did you filmed this? Was it in January? I can still see Christmas 🎄 decorations ? 😊
I did some ski lessons there a couple of years ago. I'm getting the itch again; might go Chill Factore this time. Does Zakopane still have that strong burning smell? Apart from that, I quite liked it...
Slovakia is great food wise super recommended but the wind is something else there Chopok is a bit better since you can ski on the north face and south face and most times the bad weather is on the north south face if I recall correctly
Robbie, Poland doesn't have amazing places for skiing because our mountains are small compared to, for example, the Alps. It's ok for beginners, but not for professionals. I hope you liked food and... alcohol :)
@@RobbieKnox we done Jasna just after Xmass and it was brilliant! Long, beautiful runs, great organisation, modern lifts and gondolas… cant wait to go back! Also, next time take the train. It runs on every hour and an adult ticket is 2.5 eur from Poprad to Liptovský Mikuláš.
The videos that make Christmas Day irrelevant!! Looking at taking the wife and son (4) skiing in Jan '25. Wife's been twice so can ski but would be blues and reds. Recommend this for a little break for some beginners and a mix of skiing and apre/food in the evenings?
Yeah, Zakopane was great because there’s a lot to do off the slopes, but you’ll probably be getting a few cabs out of town to try different hills. Might be worth also considering staying in Bialka Tatranska, which is in my next video. That was good.
@@RobbieKnox Ah brilliant! Thanks for the reply, it's greatly appreciated. I've skiied for 25 years in Austria mainly but now with a young family starting to ski the resorts I've been to don't really suit so thanks for the insight. 👍
Zakopana is not the greatest place to ski, there is "Kotelnica ski resort" 40min drive from there, it's the biggest ski place in that area, i guess you could call it even resort 🙂
You should try Kasprowy wierch in Zakopane - trasa goryczkowa ua-cam.com/video/HEdTgoi6C40/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared But true, because of national park we don’t have many ski slopes in zakopane.

Yeah, I refer to it towards the end of the video - didn’t go because of limited time and because some of the group are beginners and would have struggled up there.
I don't know about Slovakia but here in Poland a 20 minute taxi ride for 46 euros is an ABHORRENT price, you've been ripped off unless there's something else to that taxi ride.
No chance for many people with high ski skills , Poland 38milion people has three times less ski slopes than Slovakia which has population of 5.6milion :)

Probably Rushmore to be honest, but I haven’t seen it in ages.
Always enjoy your videos. I’m looking at skiing in Georgia. Cant see that you’ve tried that out. Also supposed to be very reasonably priced.
I’d love to ski there, I’ve never been!
Hi Robbie great video as always however this video is lacking information on pint price

It's not becayse we have small mountains but because we have national park in Tatra mountains and you can't build ski resorts there.

In many parts of the world, but in the UK we're taught to always have the tines facing down.

you should of stayed Slovakia as we have the High Tatras & Low Tatras, Jasna in Low tatras is on the World cup tour ! so much better than Zakopane !
I’ll definitely return and visit Jasna. It looks great!
Hey Robbie. Have you skied in Georgia yet near Tbilisi
No but I’d love to. Have you?
How was your ring sting up the slopes
thought there is a free bus between the lifts am i wrong?
I didn’t see one but that might just be my stupidity.
The most expensive taxi i ever heard. You have paid 46€ for 17km😮 that is why taxi driver was so happy
We’ve been ripped off haven’t we?
@@RobbieKnox maybe not, but it shouldnt be more than 30€
i love your ski vids!!!!!
You went to the wrong place in Poland. Bialka is arguably the main ski resort in Poland. Great hotels surrounded and decent slopes.
You should try "Kasprowy Wierch"
I’d love to! Was considering it this time but we had a mixed ability group and I worried some might struggle there.
Robbie, You should rather try Szczyrk then Zakopane ;)
14:56 weird there's just a random local in your bathroom
😂 Took me far too long to work out what you were saying!

Zakopana is not the greatest place to ski, there is "Kotelnica ski resort" 40min drive from there, it's the biggest ski place in that area, i guess you could call it even resort 🙂
You're in luck - it's the subject of my new video!
Try to pronounce it somewhat like "tatshanskah womneetsah" - it should work, Robert ;) Good video ;)
I’m trying at home now but I just sound like Sean Connery.
If you want ski in Europe, there are only 4 place: Switzerland, Italy, Austria,Francia.
Great content, Krupówki sounds like "croopoofki" btw ;)
Amazing! I’ll know for next time!
Food is outstanding and cheap.
Thats what counts for me 😂
That’s 90% of what I like about skiing holidays!
uh, the guy who skied K2 is from Poland. praise.....
I’m hoping for some kind of toilet 14:46 after listening to the podcast yesterday I understand.
Detachable shower head is very important.
Poland have only small slopes next time try Jasna in slovakia .
I really want to go there! Next time!
Was there a Irish pub there lol
There’s an Irish pub everywhere!
Its shit for intermediate skiers, but great for families with little ones. Austria is the Go on a budget if you can ski.
I love skiing in Austria so much.
The huge pillow in that Zakopane room! They're commonplace in eastern europe and I find them horrible :)
I didn’t mind it! I think I’m oblivious to pillow technology.
If u afery proper skiing, “Czarna góra” and “Szczyrk” resorts are far better especially if you are a good skier
Thanks, I’ll check them out!

ua-cam.com/video/HEdTgoi6C40/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
But true, because of national park we don’t have many ski slopes in zakopane.
I think the biggest ski areas in Poland that I’ve seen (not in Tatra mountains) are Szczyrk and ski arena Szrenica in Szklarska poręba
They can be crowded, we are not alpine country, I think lowlands are around 75% of Poland area ;)
I’d love to! I considered doing it this time but some of our group are pretty much beginners, so I thought they might struggle there. Next time!
Learn to ski on the cheap & then head off to Europe's high Alps once you've mastered it!
Szczyrk is the only resort worth checking in poland, all others are below average
Thanks, will check it out!
@@RobbieKnox Yeah, but only if you like commercial areas. Although slopes of Skrzyczne are not so bad.
Off-road Rollerskiing is big in Poland and just about nowhere else. So they're training for something.
Going to have to google this!
@@RobbieKnox the gear is called Skike. The names appear Polish.
Ever heard of Kasprowy Wierch...? thought so ....:(
Yeah, I refer to it towards the end of the video - didn’t go because of limited time and because some of the group are beginners and would have struggled up there.
Looks like Poland is much more develop than Slovakia !
Poland have 10x more tourist for 1/5 of of the mountains and in poland he was in town and in slovakia he visited a village.
I don't know about Slovakia but here in Poland a 20 minute taxi ride for 46 euros is an ABHORRENT price, you've been ripped off unless there's something else to that taxi ride.
Yeah, I think we probably were.
No chance for many people with high ski skills , Poland 38milion people has three times less ski slopes than Slovakia which has population of 5.6milion :)
I wonder if the dude has skied in Kazakhstan?
Next best thing after a British food tester.. or a British humility counselor 😂
