Bieszczady Peaks & Ridges

This collection features the primary elevations of the Western Bieszczady, including the range's highest peak, Tarnica (1,346 m). The selection highlights the unique 'połoniny'—vast alpine meadows found above the timberline—such as Połonina Caryńska and Bukowe Berdo. It includes the tri-border point at Kremenec, where Poland, Slovakia, and Ukraine meet, and significant forested ridges like Wysoki Dział. These summits offer expansive views of the Eastern Carpathians and are interconnected by the Main Beskid Trail.
