A town surrounded by mountains

The Rabczańska Valley, crossed by the Raba River, is situated in the south-west part of Lesser Poland. A small but delightful town, Rabka-Zdrój, lies in its centre. It is the Town of Children of the World which is famous worldwide as a children’s spa. It is mainly associated with Rabkoland Fun Park and the Puppetry ‘Rabcio’. It is a place which abounds in attractions for children and adults. What is more, Rabka is surrounded by the Gorce and the Island Beskids. It also lies close to Podhale or the Żywiec Beskids. The mountains offer picturesque trails, tourists shelters with a unique atmosphere and panoramic spots. They are also perfect for cyclists or skiers. At the place, we can eat delicious, regional dishes, listen to regional music and see folk dances.

Rabka Commune offers numerous sites connected with its long history – with Cistercian Fathers, Galicia times and the culture of Rabka and Gorce Highlanders.

On the basis of brine, which is present in Rabka Commune, a spa was formed. Tourists take advantage of its properties in sanatoria, mineral water pump rooms or brine graduation towers. Nothing else lets us relax and run away from the hustle and bustle of a big city than brine combined with the mountain climate.
