Babia Gora - Babia Hora

On the border with Poland and Slovakia...

Going up through the forest from the Polish side, early one morning in May...


The paths up are well maintained, sometimes you are stepping over old border posts for Slovakia (S) and Germany too (D)!


Halfway up there is a great Viewpoint, looking back down to the green valleys below.
The higher we got, the landscape changed to an Alpine one, with pine bushes and then..




sparse vegetation and snow still on the ground, (in late May).



Our furry friend the friendly (cunning) fox.


On the border (literally).There's no shortage of folks on the summit!
