Morskie Oko (Sea Eye)

Highlight • Lake

A picturesque place. Is also well visited here.
Until here, sneakers are sufficient but if you want to be around the lake, it should be good hiking boots.

Morskie Oko Lakeside Trail

Highlight • Trail

Rocky path, not suitable for strollers. People who only take a carriage up should also avoid taking the path.

Black Lake below Rysy

Highlight • Lake

A steep climb from Morskie Oko and you are at the extraordinary Czarny Staw. Similarly to Czarny Staw Gąsienicowy, the "black" here is from the shadows cast on the water by the mountains and the cyanobacteria that occurs here.
