Czarny Dunajec is about 60 miles south of
Kraków with its international airport. The nearest railway station is in Nowy Targ. The town is on intersection of the east-west and north-south voievodship
roads, that are one of main ways to the Western Tatra and
Zakopane mountain region as well as the nearby
Chocholow thermal spa. A local railway line through the valley was dismantled and converted to a cycling path. Important peatlands are situated to the west and north-west of the town. Czarny Dunajec and
Piekielnik were declared as a protected spa area by the Polish government in 2016. ==References==
