Both the funicular to Mt. Gubałówka and the cable car to Kasprowy Wierch run year round.
Mt. Gubałówka is low (1120 m), gently sloping and extensively developed, its wide crest occupied by a cafe, restaurant, souvenir stands and a shop renting out deck chairs and skis. In winter it teems with skiers but the funicular is great any time of the year. Along the rails runs a path for those who prefer to conquer the summit in a more ambitious manner. A viewing terrace on the top offers a panorama of Zakopane and surrounding villages set against the spectacular backdrop of the Tatras. Children can enjoy themselves on a winding 700-m-long toboggan run.
At the foot of Mt. Gubałówka, outside the funicular station, stretches a large market, where you can buy sheepskin coats, sweaters, an assortment of leather and wooden decorations as well as sheep milk products, including oscypek cheese.
