Kotuńka Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Kotuńka Rock is a characteristic limestone rock formation located in the Dunajec River just before entering Szczawnica. It is perfectly visible from the road and is one of the recognizable points in the area. Nearby, the Grajcarek River flows into the Dunajec River, and behind the rock begins the Pienińska Road leading to the border crossing. There is a legend associated with Kotuńka, according to which the devil carried a boulder to the castle in the Pieniny Mountains, but lost it when a rooster suddenly crowed. In the years 1875-1912, a sculpture of a highlander greeting visitors stood on it, which was re-erected in 1997. The name of the rock comes from its shape - according to a description from 1869, "it emerges from the water like a cunning cat on the lookout".

Czerwony Klasztor

Highlight • Historical Site

The Red Monastery is one of the most famous religious buildings in the Pieniny Mountains. In other words - don't go any further, just stop here for a while!

The construction of the monastery was ordered by Master Kokosz Berzeviczy for committing a murder - in the 14th century. He was supposed to build 6 monasteries and order 4000 masses! - to make sure that the soul of the murdered would have peace.

The whole history of this monastery is turbulent, and it is worth reading about it - pieniny.net.pl/atrakcje-czerwony-klasztor.html

Admission fee, but not expensive. Open every day.

View of Trzy Korony

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view of the Three Crowns from the pedestrian and bicycle footbridge over the Dunajec River at the Red Monastery is one of the most recognizable views of the Pieniny Mountains. From this place, you can see the characteristic limestone peaks of the Three Crowns rising above the river gorge, and the footbridge itself is a great vantage point and a stop on the VeloDunajec cycling route or the Trail Around the Tatras. It is also an ideal place for a short break - you can take a photo here, sit by the river or visit the nearby monastery.

Before 9 o'clock it's still quite loose on the path. After 10 it's already a fight for "life" 😃
A trip with mom, I'm very happy with her, she managed 👍
