点评:Visiting Kasprowy Wierch was one of the highlights of our trip to Poland. The cable car takes you nearly 2,000 meters up into the High Tatras, and the panoramic views from the top are simply breathtaking - you can see across Poland and into Slovakia on a clear day.
Why you should go:
The experience rivals any Swiss Alpine cable car but at a fraction of the price. For the quality of views and the infrastructure, this is exceptional value for money. The 15-minute cable car ride itself is scenic as you ascend through different vegetation zones into the high mountains.
The restaurant at the top surprised us - good food at reasonable prices (not the tourist trap pricing you might expect).
Important tips:
1. **Check the website (pkl.pl) before you go** - the cable car closes for maintenance between seasons, usually in November and April/May. Also check weather conditions as it can be very different at the top.
2. **Buy tickets in advance online** - this saves queuing time and guarantees your spot, especially on weekends and good weather days.
3. **Dress warmly** - it's significantly colder and often windy at the top, even when it's pleasant in Zakopane. Bring layers, a hat, and gloves even if the valley is mild.
4. **Go early** - we arrived around 9:30am and had relatively quiet time at the summit. It gets busier later in the day. But to be honest, it’s perhaps just one third of people as in any Swiss mountain even at peak hours.
5. We took public bus from Zakopane city centre and it was just 20 Polish dollars. (Just 5 polish dollar from bus). This avoids many parking problems!
If you're in Zakopane, don't miss this. It's an unforgettable experience and incredible value compared to similar attractions in Western Europe.
翻译:卡斯普罗维维尔赫 (Kasprowy Wierch) 之行是我们波兰之旅的一大亮点。缆车将您送上近 2000 米高的塔特拉山脉,山顶的全景令人叹为观止——晴朗的日子里,您可以远眺波兰,甚至斯洛伐克。
推荐理由:
这里的体验足以媲美任何瑞士阿尔卑斯山缆车,价格却低得多。就景色和基础设施而言,性价比极高。15 分钟的缆车之旅本身就是一次绝佳的体验,您将穿过不同的植被带,最终抵达高山之巅。
山顶餐厅也让我们惊喜不已——食物美味,价格合理(并非您想象中的那种宰客高价)。
重要提示:
1. **出行前请查看官网 (pkl.pl)**——缆车会在淡季期间进行维护,通常在 11 月和 4/5 月。此外,山顶的天气状况可能与地面截然不同,请务必查看天气预报。
2. **提前在线购票**——这样可以节省排队时间,并确保您的位置,尤其是在周末和天气晴朗的日子。
3. **注意保暖**——山顶气温明显较低,而且经常刮风,即使扎科帕内天气宜人也是如此。即使山谷里气候温和,也建议携带多层衣物、帽子和手套。
4. **尽早出发**——我们早上9:30左右到达山顶,当时人比较少。下午晚些时候人会比较多。但说实话,即使在高峰时段,这里的游客数量也只有瑞士其他山峰的三分之一左右。
5. 我们从扎科帕内市中心乘坐公共汽车,车费仅需20波兰兹罗提(公交车上只需5波兰兹罗提)。这样可以避免很多停车问题!
如果您在扎科帕内,千万不要错过这里。这将是一次难忘的体验,而且与西欧类似的景点相比,性价比极高。
