The most beautiful natural ski jump in the world is called Wielka Krokiew, named after Stanislaw Marusarz and located in Zakopane, not far from the White Sheep. The facility was exquisitely incorporated into the terrain created by the ridge of Mount Krokiew by the famous pre-war architect Karol Stryjeński. Wielka Krokiew witnessed our greatest successes in ski jumping, the phenomenal flights of Bronislaw Czech or Stanislaw Marusarz and in recent years first Adam Malysz then Kamil Stoch or Dawid Kubacki. It was also at Wielka Krokiew that the largest-ever meeting between Pope John Paul II and highlanders took place in June 1997.
You will reach the Wielka Krokiew by taking the Droga pod reglami road, passing the Strążyska Valley and the Dolina Białego Valley on the way. The distance is about 3 km.
