Krupówki Street is a legendary street.
 
Each person visiting Zakopane absolutely must go for a walk along this street to see itinerant buskers, strolling players, magicians and soap bubbles sellers. Krupówki Street is a street theatre – it is vibrant with life, it resounds with languages from all over the world and it smells so familiar of, for instance, grilled oscypek (smoked ewe’s milk cheese made only in the Tatra Mountains).
 
Krupówki Street is the heart of trade in Zakopane It is a paradise for shoppers as it is possible to buy almost everything there. There are innumerable shopping arcades, souvenir shops and exquisite boutiques to choose from!

Everything! But the best idea is to stroll along Krupówki Street first. Then, you can visit Museum Tatrzańskie (The Tatra Museum) and see old photographs and other antique objects of Polish highland folk art. Later, you can admire beautiful gravestones at a very old and tiny Cmentarz na Pęksowym Brzysku (Pęksa’s Precipice Cemetry). A few metres from there you may visit a busy local market at Gubałówka where you can buy oscypek (smoked ewe’s milk cheese), unsalted bryndza (ewe’s milk cheese), pickled saffron milk caps and various sorts of honey from local apiaries. Next, you can go to Gubałówka (one of the most popular mountains) by cableway to lie in a deckchair and enjoy a gorgeous panorama of the Tatra Mountains. And finally, at the end of a day, you can drink a nostalgic coffee in Kawiarnia Europejska (Europejska Café) – probably the only place in Zakopane which has not changed for 40 years. If you feel like dancing in the evening Krupówki Street is full of nightclubs where you can do this but it is advisable to reserve a table earlier.

A wonderful location of Krupówki makes it easy, fast and convenient to get to ski lifts. It takes only a few minutes to get to Rondo Kuźnickiego (Kuźnicki’s Roundabout) where there is a road leading to Kasprowy Wierch cable car.
 
You should also try ski runs on Szymoszkowa Polana and Nosal.
 
If you want to get to Gubałówka cableway station all you need to do is to walk for a very short time down Krupówki Street.

Our pension is also wonderful for lovers of mountain hiking. All you need to do is to walk for about 15 minutes and there you are – at the entrance to The Tatra National Park. All tourist trails leading to Droga pod Reglami, Dolina Strążyska, Dolina Białego and to all the highest summits of  the Tatra Mountains begin there.

It is very convenient to get to Apartamenty Krupówki 24 from the railway station and bus station. There is a taxi rank about 50 metres from the entrance to our pension. 100 metres further there is a manned car park.
 
Because of the fact that Krupówki Street is a street closed for traffic during the day, it is easiest to park your car just outside the entrance to our pension before 11 a.m. and after 7 p.m. Otherwise you have to park your car in the distance of 50 metres from our pension, for example outside the building of the Polish Post.
