There's an option to walk up if you prefer to rather than take the cable car. Lots of nice market stalls and restaurants. Our driver peter was so helpful. He even recommend a lovely place for dinner.

I walked around the small market area before lining up at the ticket office to buy a return ticket on the funicular. Which also offers some great views going up and down the mountain. The mountain top offers some great views of Zakopane and the Tatras Mountains with many photo opportunities. Also, restaurants and bars, markets, gravitational slide, a small church, and a chance to try Oscypek - Polish goat cheese with cranberry jam by its side, mulled wine. Worth the experience and a visit.

I was glad that I timed my trip up to Gubalowka with just half an hour of daylight left. This meant I could enjoy the views in the light and then after strolling around for half an hour, I could see it all lit up in the dark. The views of Zakopane from the mountain were impressive, and the area is nice to stroll around for an hour or so, with a mulled wine!

Looks nice with all the light on. Beautiful view but that market on a mane road looks a bit messy. Also didn’t like that you must pay for all bathrooms , even in a bar where you drink or eat .

If possible choose visit on a clear day during the week for stunning views and fewer crowds. We visited on a Sunday and it was heaving with a long queue for the funicular ride to the viewpoint, but it was worth it. The views were sublime. There are bars and restaurants and food and souvenir stores at top. You can also book horse or snow mobile rides and go skiing etc. We brought a picnic and there are places to sit and eat your own food. Worth the wait to get up for the views alone.

If you’re going for the views of the snowy mountains you will not be disappointed! The markets are a bit dated and have the same items and you have to pay to use all of the toilets. There’s lots of places to eat and relax whilst looking at the views.

The views are truly amazing! Funicular was easy to purchase and ride on takes around 5mins. We went in the morning at around 10am+ and it's not as crowded as near to noon. It was sunny hot but breezy. We spend around 4hrs all in including lunch and just to chill and people-watch around. But you could possibly do it under 2hrs. There's technically nothing much to do unless you have kids (with some games/activities for them) / gravitational slide. The row of roadside stalls behind selling the souvenirs & all are more or less the same stuffs. Overall, a pleasant visit for 1st timers.

The whole journey takes only 5 minutes and on the day we visited the funicular was not too busy. At the bottom there is a market selling local produce and the town centre is a short 5 minute walk away. Once at the top there are some wonderful vistas of the Tatra mountains, bars, various eateries and a gravitational slide. If you like you could attempt the 40 minute walk to the top, although we visited in April, there was still a chunk of snow lying around and don't forget the temperature is slightly cooler than at the base. Prices for food and drink are slightly more expensive than elsewhere but still quite reasonable.

The view was amazing and it was a nice hike up. Took us about 30 minutes to reach the top. Would have loved to enjoy peace and nature with the view, but unfortunately the soul of this place is ruined by shops that sell plastic crap.

Amazing. The trolley ride was somewhat expensive priced at 39/32 zł per person, but the ride itself was easy and fast. You can also hike there without any payment. There are a lot of restaurants and shops there, and the beach faced towards the Tatra mountains was very pleasant to spend time on. We were able to sit on the deckchairs and admire the view, eating baked potatoes and ice cream. We went there twice and didn't regret a thing. Only flaw were the paid bathrooms. I recommend going to one of the restaurants because at only 1zł more they are much cleaner than the one near the exit. They also have a rope park and a lot of game centres on the top. Good spot for relaxation.
