Gmina Korzenna

Gmina Korzenna is a rural municipality in Nowy Sącz County in southern Poland containing sixteen villages spread across hilly terrain. The area features meadows, forests, and farmland interspersed with small settlements.

The territory became a defined administrative unit in 1999 following Poland's territorial reorganization reforms. This restructuring established the current three-level system of governance across the country.

The locality maintains rural traditions and crafts passed down through generations in its villages. You can observe local gathering spaces and markets where traditional activities remain part of everyday life.

The best time to explore is during months with mild weather when field paths are easily accessible and villages are most active. Allow time to move between the different settlements on foot or by car, since locations are spread across several kilometers.

A portion of this territory lies within the Ciężkowice-Rożnów Landscape Park, which protects hills with natural formations and local ecosystems. This park holds rare plants and animals characteristic of the region that observant visitors may notice.
