Parszywka

Parszywka is a mountain summit reaching 842 meters in the Makowski Beskids, a range in the eastern Carpathians. Multiple marked trails wind through forests and converge at the peak from various starting points in the surrounding area.

This peak served as a geographical reference point for navigation and boundary marking in the region since medieval times. Its position made it a reliable landmark for centuries of settlement and travel in the area.

Local hikers regularly use these routes as day trips and gather at the nearby Veronica Chapel for seasonal celebrations. The chapel serves as a focal point where visitors can experience how the mountain connects to community traditions.

The trails are best explored during dry weather, as the paths become slippery after rain and harder to navigate. Proper hiking boots and weather-appropriate clothing are essential since conditions vary greatly with the season.

Despite being a rewarding hike, this peak attracts fewer visitors than taller neighboring summits in the region. This makes it a quieter destination for those seeking forest walks without crowds.
