Zakopane is one of the most picturesque and famous towns, and the highest town in Poland, in the heart of the Tatra Mountains. The town has crisp mountain air and picturesque scenery that feels like a living postcard. It’s no coincidence that it is often called “the winter capital of Poland,” thanks to its ski areas, mountain cable cars, and the snow that covers the peaks during the winter months.
In recent years, Zakopane has also been attracting Jewish travelers looking for an organized vacation with kosher food and a comfortable atmosphere for families. One of the standout places is the kosher lodging complex at the luxurious Aspen (Askana) hotel, which has a special wing for the Torah observant, kosher keeping public. At the kosher hotel in Zakopane there is a synagogue, a heated pool, saunas, and a spa area. In addition, the hotel serves very high level kosher meals, including Shabbat meals in a luxurious and pleasant atmosphere. Please note the kosher wing at the hotel operates most of the year, but there are dates when it is closed; here on the site you can get information, assistance, and an organized booking at the hotel.
In winter, skiers arrive here from all over Europe. The area has a variety of ski trails, ranging from family trails to more challenging ones. In addition, there are cable cars, snow complexes, winter walking trails, and breathtaking viewpoints over the Tatra Mountains. The area also has sledding complexes and additional winter attractions suited to families and children.
In summer, Zakopane changes its atmosphere and becomes a calm, green nature destination. Travelers head out on walking trails in the area, with the nearby Tatra National Park, which includes hundreds of kilometers of trails with lakes, streams, valleys, forests, and caves,
