Sky Walk is a modern observation tower located in the Zgorzelisko Glade in the Poronin area, just a few minutes' drive from the towns of Zakopane, Białka Tatrzańska, and Bukowina Tatrzańska. The tower quickly became popular as the largest glass viewing terrace in Europe. It combines a viewing point with an adrenaline park. Its main advantage is offering mountain views without having to go into difficult terrain, making it accessible to more visitors.

Path Length: 854 meters of wooden path, 2.5 meters wide, maximum slope of 6° – accessible for families with strollers and people with disabilities
Height: The structure rises 47 meters above the ground, extending above the treetops
Glass Terraces: The lower terrace is 23 m², the upper one – the largest in Europe – is 72–75 m²
Adrenaline Park: Includes a suspended playground (spider webs and tunnels) and two slides
The wide, gentle path allows children, seniors, and people with mobility issues to participate in the walk
Sky Walk operates most of the year, but access may be limited during bad weather, such as strong winds or heavy rain.
No pets allowed, except guide dogs
Entrance and parking are paid (see below)

Sky Walk Heart of Poronin - the newest attraction in Podhale

Sky Walk Poronin is one of the newest tourist attractions in the Podhale region. It opened to visitors in the spring of 2025 and has attracted people visiting Podhale due to the opportunity to admire the Tatra Mountains from a height and the unique experience of walking above the treetops.

The structure is a wooden path spiraling upwards to a viewing platform. The total path length is over 800 meters, and the maximum height is about 47 meters above ground level.

The entire path is designed for people with different physical abilities – the path's slope is gentle, allowing use by people in wheelchairs and families with small children.

Part of Sky Walk is also a glass viewing platform at the top of the structure. From here, you can see the surrounding mountain ranges, including the Tatras, Gorce, and Podhale. In good weather, visibility reaches several kilometers, allowing you to see both mountain peaks and the valleys below. The path is equipped with information boards about the region's fauna and flora, as well as the history and culture of Podhale, making the walk educational too.
