Żegiestów, Mountain spa village in Lesser Poland, Poland.

Located at 486 meters elevation on the Poprad River, Żegiestów sits near the Slovak border within the hills of Nowy Sącz County.

The village underwent significant changes after World War II when many Lemko Rusyn inhabitants were relocated to the Soviet Union and western Poland.

The village contains mineral water springs and spa facilities that date back to pre-war times when it competed with other regional health resorts.

Visitors can reach Żegiestów through road connections from Nowy Sącz, situated 28 kilometers north, or from Kraków, located 98 kilometers northwest.

The Dom Zdrojowy spa house, unused since 2004, represents the evolution of this former luxury resort destination from its pre-war popularity to current state.
