Summer hike in the Reglowe Tatra Mountains. From Brzeziny we ascend Gęsia Szyja, a peak with beautiful views of the High Tatras. We take the black trail along the Sucha Woda stream, which is dry at this time of year, to reach Psia Trawka. On the way we pass numerous landslides created by the periodically swollen waters of the stream. We enter the Pańszczycki Stream valley, visiting two interesting peat bogs: Wielka Pańszczycka Młaka and Wyżnia Pańszczycka Młaka. Next, we take the red trail to the vast Waksmundzka Glade and conquer the scenic Waksmundzka Pass. From the pass, we take the green trail to the top of Gęsia Szyja, from where we enjoy a perfect panorama of the highest peaks of the High Tatras.
