Czorsztyn, Mountain village in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland.
The village of Czorsztyn occupies a position along the Polish-Slovak border within the Pieniny mountain range near Lake Czorsztyn reservoir.
The medieval castle of Czorsztyn, constructed to protect the frontier with Hungary, remained operational until its destruction by fire in 1790.
The village maintains strong connections to regional traditions of Lesser Poland, including local customs, traditional architecture, and mountain folklore.
Visitors reach Czorsztyn through regular bus services from Krośnica or by boat from Niedzica, with several accommodation options near the lake.
The ruins of Czorsztyn Castle stand on a limestone cliff, providing views across Lake Czorsztyn, the Dunajec River valley, and the Tatra Mountains.
