Skiing in Gliczarów

That was not our first visit to Gliczarów. We had been going there for years with our children to teach them how to ski. This small village is located on a hill near Zakopane, Poland. In the village there are guesthouses, ski rentals and two T-bar lifts. And that’s what makes it a great place to rest and learn skiing.

Fun fact: Gliczarów Górny lies between about 900 and over 1,000 metres above sea level. It is one of the highest villages in Podhale and in Poland, so on a clear day you can see the whole Tatra Mountains from here.

The children spent the first part of the winter holidays there with their grandparents and Annie. Agatha, after one week of learning to ski, became an expert. Kris was doing well, but it was easier for him because he had already skied the previous year. Justine also tried, but she was too small to ski alone. She was only 3.

We didn’t know how to take care of Justine while we were skiing. She only agreed to go sledding. We found a way and pulled the sledge while skiing. We created some kind of sleigh ride. We needed to be careful not to crash. Justine was over the moon. Anyway, you can see how we spent one of these days in Gliczarów:
