Region: Gorce Mountains
Gorce Mountains – a mountain range belonging to the Western Beskids. It is situated between the valleys of the rivers Raba and Dunajec. It borders with Beskid Wyspowy in the north and Podhale in the south. The landscape of the Gorce Mountains consists of radially diverging ridges of various lengths separated by deeply cut valleys with steep slopes. The mountain clearings are of particular value for the landscape and nature of the Gorce Mountains. They were created as a result of the traditional pastoral economy. There are numerous wooden shepherd’s huts representing the regional architecture of Zagórze and Podhale. Created in 1981, the Gorce National Park protects the central part of the Gorce Mountains, and includes the least changed by man mixed forests, known as the Carpathian beech forest.
