Poland's vast, tranquil countryside and historical cities are increasingly accessible for both short-break visitors and walkers looking to explore off-the-beaten-track Poland. Gordon McLachlan guides travelers through the whole range of Poland's attractions in this new Bradt guide, helping visitors make sense of the country's complex history and providing all the relevant town and city plans and an extended introduction to the centers of Krakow and Warsaw. Thorough coverage of the fast growing accommodation and tour options and essential Polish words and phrases are provided. There is a special emphasis on national parks and walking in some of eastern Europe's most unspoiled mountains.
