The Tatras offer everything that a mountain holiday should - dramatic vistas, rich flora and fauna, emerald lakes, bucolic pastures, scented forests, cascading waterfalls. The Tatras range of mountains is the highest and most beautiful section of the Western Carpathian mountain range, which are located on the border of Poland and Slovakia.

The Western Tatras (Polish: Tatry Zachodnie) are a mountain range in the Tatras, part of the Carpathian Mountains, located on the Polish-Slovak borders.

The highest point in Poland is Starorobocianski Wierch (2,176 m).
