    The summit ascent to Wielki Giewont is often overcrowded. In the summer months, waiting times of up to 30 minutes are not uncommon

      The summit ascent to Wielki Giemont is often overcrowded. A waiting time of up to 30 minutes is not uncommon, especially in the summer months. 😩

          The ascent to the Giewont summit is one-way (clockwise circular route). According to OSM, it is a T3-graded alpine hiking trail. Rope safety devices are installed at several points.

          On days when the weather is good, there can be considerable waiting times due to queues of people.

            The ascent and descent is secured with chains that you can hold on to.
            Both are one-way streets, so nobody comes towards you :)
            At the end of October, when the weather was good, we didn't have to wait any longer.
