Polana Głodówka, Scenic viewpoint and mountain shelter in Tatra Mountains, Poland
The observation point extends across 6 hectares of land, offering a 76-kilometer panorama of mountain peaks including Giewont, Kasprowy, Rysy, and Gerlach.
The first documentation of Polana Głodówka dates to 1676 when King Jan III Sobieski granted permission to village leaders to establish this clearing.
The mountain shelter, dedicated to architect Karol Stryjeński, serves as a meeting point for mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts exploring Polish mountain traditions.
Located 3 kilometers from Bukowina Tatrzańska, the site features two parking areas, a restaurant, observation terraces, and accommodation facilities open throughout the year.
The viewpoint sits at an elevation between 1070 and 1145 meters, providing an unobstructed view of both Polish and Slovak sections of the Tatra mountain range.
