Szklary Tunnel, Railway tunnel in Szklary, Poland.

The Szklary Tunnel extends 602 meters through the landscape, making it the longest narrow-gauge railway tunnel in Europe.

The tunnel opened in September 1904 to transport sugar beets and timber, supporting the industrial development of the Podkarpacie region.

The tunnel forms part of the Pogorzanin narrow-gauge railway route between Przeworsk and Dynow, following the Mleczka River valley.

The tunnel structure remains closed to train traffic due to recent floods that caused infrastructure damage and landslides along the tracks.

During winter months, ice formations develop inside the tunnel, creating natural decorations that attract photographers from across Europe.
