Kasprowy Wierch cable car - tips for tourists:

Before you decide to go go to Kasprowy Wierch I recommend to check at www.pkl.pl if the cable car (and ski lifts - if you plan to ski there) are open.
The cable car station is located in Kuznice (upper part of Zakopane).
The road between John Paul II Rondo (the roundabout) and Kuznice is closed for most traffic, except for those with permits. A walk from Rondo Jana Pawła II takes approximately 45 minutes, also taxis or public transportation are available. Due to construction works, car access to Kuznice is currently not possible. Both public transport and taxis can only go to the intersection of Przewodnikow Tatrzanskich street and Karlowicza street. The walking time from here to the cable car station is approximately 15 - 20 minutes (1.200m).
In high season /Christmas, New Year, school holidays and weekends/ cable car can be very busy.
To avoid waiting in the queue to the ticket office in Kuznice, tickets for the Kasprowy Wierch cable car can be purchased in advance on-line - www.sklep.pkl.pl/en/
Notice please that the ticket-office in Kuznice (cable car station) sells tickets only for the current day immediately before the departure of the cable carriage. All the passengers for whom tickets are being bought should be present in front of the ticket-office. Once the tickets have been bought, passengers check-in and proceed to the departure platform.
The cable car trip to Mount Kasprowy (1987 m asl) takes approximately 10 minutes and takes place in two stages with a change in Myślenickie Turnie (1325 m asl).
Guaranteed time of stay at Mount Kasprowy for those with return tickets is 1 h 40 min, the departure time is specified on the ticket. The ticket is valid all day but only at the mentioned departure time one can get to the return cable car without queuing.
