Southeast Poland has remained a rural backwater where horses and people, rather than tractors, work on the land and dramatic castles and Uniate wooden churches punctuate the landscape. Remote national parks in the Carpathian mountains offer excellent walking through beech woods and limestone gorges and a scenic raft trip on the Dunajec river.

 

Historic Krakow, Poland’s cultural capital for centuries, contains marvellous mediaeval churches, excellent galleries and museums and lively street markets, cafes and summer festival events.
