A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
I was there yesterday as a tourist. (That is, July 18, 2025). I want to write something because I read the reviews... I think a lot has changed for the better. Tickets online are easy to get, prices depend on the time. I waited maybe 15 minutes for my turn with the tickets I bought, so it's okay. In the English cable car, you won't listen to the recorded guide because the English are yelling (it's not up to the railway, after all).

A cable car ride is an incredible experience, and the views are worth overcoming your fear of heights for. At the top, you can learn interesting facts about the Tatra Mountains' natural beauty from the guides, as well as learn about mountain safety and weather conditions.

Skąpi górale na wszystkim chcą sporo zarobić.

Dramat... pierwszy i ostatni raz. Zmarnowane pieniądze i to niemałe... traktują turystow jak bydlo. Kolejka przeladowana.. aby upchac jak najwiecej ludzi i zgarnac $$$.. nie polecam!!! Wiecej tam nie wróce.

Kolejka do kasy to 3h czekania. Okłamują ludzi pisząc że na górze jest się 1h40min przy zakupie biletów góra - dół. Po otrzymaniu biletu okazuje się że 3h. Nie można zjechać wcześniej. Jeżeli ktoś jest z małym dzieckiem to ich to zwyczajnie nie obchodzi. Drą się do turystów traktują jak bydło na hali. Za te pieniądze tak traktować. Wstyd. Gdyby nie my turyści nie mieli by pracy i zarobku. Nigdy więcej nie wrócę w to miejsce i każdemu będę odradzać. Nie warto.

Jedyny warty uwagi stok w polsce dla ludzi którzy już coś jeżdżą na nartach jak pojedziecie na kasprowy na inne stoki nie wrócicie, inny wymiar narciarstwa trasy szerokie, idealnie przygotowane, strome ale zróżnicowane a przede wszystkim alpejskie widoki ;)

Well worth going to the top if you are a keen skier and happen to be in the area. But they could make it much simpler for everybody...
1) Parking information is non-existent. You can drive up to the departure area but cannot park there and nearest parking is about 20mins walk. We took taxi from hotel which if you stay in Zakopane was about same price as price of parking. With ski gear, forget about the 20mins walk !
2) Even their website is not clear about opening time... says 9am-4pm when we actually went up at 8:40am and local taxi drivers were telling us you can go up from 8am
3) Then there are 2 queues. One for those with tickets and one for those who need to buy one. Those needing to buy tickets can go straight to the departure turnstiles after the purchase. Those with pre-booked tickets were left waiting and I have no idea at what rates they were being let in to the turnstiles. But the 3 times we came back down, the pre-booked line didn’t seem to move much
4) if you just want to go skiing then just buy a skipass. We bought our tickets for the cable car in advance only to be told when we bought our skipass at the selling desk that one ride up on the cable car is included with ski pass. Obviously if you want to ski all the way back down and go up again then you will need to buy another cable car ride.
5) There are only 2 chair lifts at the top. One for a short black run that starts straight at the top of the cable car arrival area, one for a red run that becomes a blue/green through the forest and takes you all the way to the bottom. BEWARE: if you start with the red run, the only way to get back to the start of the black run is either a very steep walk up to the top of the mountain or a long walk (upward) around it... I could not believe they didn’t think of having the 2 chairlifts arriving at the same location. Only other way to get from the red to the black is to go all the way down and catch the cable car again. We tried that but gave up when we saw a 2/3h queue ! So unless you get back to the bottom before 9:30am then forget it.
In conclusion: probably the best ski run in the area so I would absolutely go there if you are a good skier. Go there at 8am to get a chance to do the long red/blue slope all the way down then go back up to do the black runs. When you had enough of the black then you can go around the mountain again to do the red a couple of times then ski all the way back to Zakopane through the forest.

Fatalna organizacja. CZekaliśmy od 8:00 w kolejce po karnety,o godzinie 11:30 okazało się, ze już nie sprzedają. Inni czekali dłużej. Mało komu udało się kupić karnet na miejscu. Okazało się ze jest brak normalnych biletów bo za dużo ludzi ale okazało się ze bilety excluziv dużo droższe można kupić. Nikt nie poinformował ludzi o sytuacji, stracone pół dnia.
