No need to walk – a bus can take you to Morskie Oko now
Tourists spending their holidays in Białka or Bukowina Tatrzańska will find it easier to reach Palenica Białczańska, where the trail to Morskie Oko begins. The commune of Bukowina Tatrzańska is launching new bus lines that will take tourists to the beginning of the trail from various parts of the commune.
Why was the bus line instated?
This is to meet the difficult situation on the access road to Łysa Polana and further to Palenica Białczańska, which is formed in almost every summer season. Whenever it is a clear day, giant traffic jams and congestion form on the access road.
It comes as the result of increased interest in Morskie Oko (one of the easiest routes in the Tatras). In addition, most tourists try to get there in their own car. Limited number of parking spaces = tourists’ cars do not fit, resulting in parking on the side of the road, narrowing the passage. As a result, the road from Wierch Porońca to Łysa Polana is often stuck in traffic jams.
The solution is for tourists to choose public transport more often. It’s just that there must be such options available. Until now, buses mainly run from Zakopane. It will change now.
As of 1st July 2020, bus lines to Palenica Białczańska started running
From July 1, three bus lines will be launched in the Bukowina Tatrzańska communes, which will take people to Palenica Białczańska. Running from Białka Tatrzańska, Gliczarów Górny and Bukowina Tatrzańska the buses will drive through Głodowski and Spiski Wierch, as well as through Rusiński Wierch.
“They will be connected to alternative parking lots for tourists, located at the ski station on Rusinski Wierch and at Kotelnica Białczańska in Białka Tatrzańska. Tourists will be able to leave their cars there and take buses, which will have stops at parking lots” – says Andrzej Pietrzyk, head of the commune of Bukowina Tatrzańska. Parking lots will be free. Tourists will have to pay for buses back and forth.
The courses will take place every hour before noon and every hour afternoon. New connections were co-financed by the commune office in Bukowina Tatrzańska.
