"On a long suburban hike from the centre of Poznań, via the Garrison Cemetery, Os. Jana III Sobiesiego and yellow trail (Droga Poznańska) north through the Suchy Forest to the summit. I then returned the same way, taking the tram from Os. Jana Sobiesiego back to the city centre. A cold but sunny day, with a dusting of snow in the wintry forest. Solo. Done on a four-day city break in Poznań." - Góra Moraska, marktrengove, Feb 12, 2018

"Quick morning hike to the highest point of the Pieniny National Park. Quite a lot of snow but the trail was good. Beautifull views from the top. The forecasts for the next 2 days are bad though. Very strong foehn wind (up to 284 km/h in Tatras, 150 km/h in Pieniny) so it will probably melt most of the snow." - Trzy Korony, JakubW, Dec 10, 2017

"From Prz. nad Łapszanką. I was dropped off at the col by the shrine. A short descent on the lane brought me into the hamlet of Wyżni Koniec. From there I followed the yellow trail up north-east on a track through pastures around the west flank of Hołowiec 1035m. Where the trail began to descend into the next valley I left it to follow another track north-west over Pt. 1026m. At the highest point on the track I took a faint path west through pastures and into the forest. A short bush-wack north brought me into a grassy clearing. An earthen mound covered in wild raspberry plants constituted " - Dudasowski Wierch, marktrengove, Aug 9, 2017

"From Zazdnia, as the car park at the entrance to the valley was full. We took the blue trail up Dolina Filipka, which then headed up the side valley (Złote Dolina) to the attractive chapel (Kaplica Małki Boskej Jaworzyńskiej) and meadow beyond (Rusinowa Polana), with great views of the High Tatra. Leaving wife and son to sample the cooked cheeses on sale at a hut, I headed up the stepped path to the summit, and onwards to the tor at the western end, which afforded another excellent view. I then returned by my outward route, meeting up with the family at the chapel for the rest of the descent." - Gęsia Szyja, marktrengove, Aug 9, 2017

"From our self-catering accommodation in Zakopane, we took the road up to the National Park entrance to Strążyska Dolina, then the Droga pod Regłami trail west to the entrance to Dolina Małe Łąki. Next we took the yellow trail up the valley as far as Wielka Polana. Diverting east onto the black trail, we ascended to Prz. w Grzybowcu, where my family left to continue without me. A faint zig-zag path through the forest brought me out onto the summit above small limestone crags. Good views west and south, though trees obscured to the north and east. I returned to the col, joining the crowds desce" - Łysanki, marktrengove, Aug 8, 2017
