Tarnica, Mountain summit in Bieszczady Mountains, Poland
The peak reaches an elevation of 1,346 meters and features two distinct summits with a steep rocky wall on its southern face.
The mountain has long served as a natural border marker between different regions of the Carpathian Mountains throughout Polish history.
Every Good Friday, thousands of Catholic pilgrims make their way to the summit cross at Tarnica as part of a religious tradition.
The most direct hiking trail to Tarnica begins in Wołosate village, with alternative routes starting from Ustrzyki Górne through Halicz peak.
The annual Bieg Rzeźnika running competition challenges participants to complete an 80-kilometer mountain trail course in this region.
