Zawoja

Poland

Zawoja is a village in Western Beskids in Poland. It's known as the longest village in Poland.

Wooden church in Zawoja Zawoja's main attraction is the Babiogórski National Park. It features the 1725 m high Babia Góra peak and wildlife including bears, wolves and lynxes. A beautiful wooden church dating from 1888 can be visited in the town part known as Zawoja Centrum.

Hiking is definitely the most rewarding activity for visitors. There are several paths going through the National Park as well as the bordering forest. Maps are available in any bigger book store in Poland.

A lot of small stores with irregular opening hours offer the most necessary food and other items. They can be found in every part of the town. A more expensive, but very complete supermarket can be found in Zawoja Centrum.

There are some restaurants scattered around all parts of the town.
