From Kraków Airport to Białka, step by step

  1. Around Kraków

    The driver uses the ring road from the airport, avoiding the city centre.

  2. South on the Zakopianka

    The main road to the Tatras runs past Myślenice into the hills. This is where weekend queues are most likely.

  3. Towards Nowy Targ

    Around Nowy Targ the route leaves the Zakopane traffic and turns east towards the Białka valley, usually a quieter road.

  4. Into the village

    The last kilometres follow local roads into Białka Tatrzańska, where snow is common in winter. Vehicles use winter tyres and carry chains when needed.

What Białka Tatrzańska is like

Białka is smaller and calmer than Zakopane. Its ski slopes are wide and well suited to beginners and children, and the lift system is concentrated around the village. After skiing, many guests spend time at the thermal pools.

Accommodation is mostly guesthouses, apartments and mid-sized hotels spread along the village and its side roads. Give your exact address when booking, as several places can have similar names.

Travelling with children and ski gear

Request child seats when you book, stating the children’s ages. A family of four with suitcases, skis or snowboards usually needs a minivan; if you plan to rent equipment in Białka, a car may be enough. Declaring luggage in advance means the right vehicle is sent.
