After getting a good night’s rest at PTTK Murowaniec, our next stop was PTTK Roztoki, and then it was off to Dolina Pięciu Stawów Polskich (The Valley of Five Polish Ponds), which is a couple of valleys to the east of where we were. We had a long hike ahead of us, and unfortunately, it was our first day of real rain.

Project quite likely: Day 3
Day three and once again, snow putting our original plans to rest, however we still had an achievable aim, finding a peak >2000m which wasn’t covered in snow. So we turned our attention to Dolina Gąsienicowa, specifically Kościelec (‘Caterpillar valley’ and ‘the church’)…
