Please be informed that from May 29 the red trail from Wołosate village to Bukowska Pass (Przełęcz Bukowska) is open.

Afer the last rainfalls, all hiking trails are slippery and muddy. Please be careful.

From May 15, 2020. the campsite in Bereżki village is open for tourists.

To ensure the safety of enployees and users of the campsite, we present some of the most important principles:

During the period from 15 May to 29 May 2020 section of the red hiking trail from Wołosate to Bukowska Pass (Przełęcz Bukowska) is closed due to the forest work (see the map below).

The rest of the trail is open for tourists. If the works are completed before the planned date, the trail will be opened earlier.

Please be advised, that the course of yellow hiking trail from Wyżna Pass (parking lot) to Połonina Wetlińska has changed (consult the attached map). Please follow the new marking. It is no longer possible to approach the schelter on Połonina Wetlińska (the renovation of the building) or to cross the forest section of the former yellow trail. The entire ridge of Połonina Wetlińska is accessible (red trail).

Thank you very much for responsible behaviour on the trails - we are glad that most of you follow the restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

All hiking trails are open. Please remeber, that general recommendations and restrictions apply also in national parks:

• Cover your mouth and nose in parking lots, information points and viewpoints, where tourists gather. There is no obligation to cover your face in forest and open areas.

Due to an extraordinary situation related to the spread of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19 illness and a tightening of the restrictions regarding people gatherings in the public space, we are taking preventive measures. Since large gatherings of people are conductive to the spread of coronavirus, we decided to close all tourist trails in the area of Bieszczady National Park from 25 March 2020 until further notice. We want to avoid the accumulation of tourists in the parking lots, shelters or in the view points in the peak areas.

We remind you that:

• regarding the announcement of an epidemic emergency in the territory of Poland, all our facilities, where tourist could gather (management office, information center, museum, educational stations, stables etc.) have been closed until the further notice

• accommodation facilities belonging to the Bieszczady National Park are closed and reservations made for the period of emergency have been canceled.

Let's stay in our own homes. Individual walks to stay healthy are recommended wherever possible. We will keep you updated on our Facebook about changes in nature. We hope that the opening of the new tourist season will take place shortly after the epidemic threat ceases. Thank you for understanding. 

Due to an extraordinary situation related to the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19), the Bieszczady National Park Museum in Ustrzyki Dolne will be closed for visitors and all the educational classes for students from schools and educational establishments will be cancelled from 12/03/2020 until further notice.
