Tatra National Park, Poland

Poland's Tatra National Park protects a mountain landscape. Its High Tatras have an alpine landscape, while the western peaks are gentler. Glaciers helped shape the mountains' lakes and steep rock walls. Wolves, lynx and bears are among the large predators identified by the park authority.

Editorial reading

Editorial interpretation: The contrast between the High Tatras and the western mountain forms offers a way to read different landscapes within the park. Considering glacial features alongside habitats adds another perspective without reducing the place to a single summit.
