Przehyba from Gołkowice

He has already climbed Przehyba several times. The last time was on 05.09.2025. The trip on that day was organised by my friend Adam. Recommended.

I did this climb on 05.09.2025, a dream come true for me at the age of 75. It was a difficult climb of 9.3 km, 9.3 km long. My road bike had a gear ratio of 50/34 and 11/34. I managed it, but the descent was not easy either.
I would like to suggest all those who are crazy to check it out. Best regards to my colleague Wiesek from Nowy Sącz

The beginning of the climb is quite lazy, with an incline of 4-5％. The further part is already solid 10％+ so it is worthwhile to manage your strength. The second half of the climb is closed to motorised traffic. Quality of asphalt very decent. Only the last few tens of meters are on gravel road, but it is easy to pass on the road. At the summit there is a chalet and pleasant views of the mountains.

This is a local and not just a classic. A long climb offering a massive elevation gain that actually starts in Golkowice. As already mentioned, the beginning is relatively calm, but from the moment you pass a hydro-technical facility (a bit after the barrier in Gabon), it gets steeper and keeps going until the top. At the top, the views are beautiful of the Tatra and Pieniny mountains and a number of other mountain ranges. A new viewing terrace.

A challenging climb, the first kilometres quite easy, but the last 5km with a gradient of about 10％. Basically no place to rest, so when planning to go up without stopping you need to spread your strength well. Satisfaction at the top guaranteed :D

The beginning is easy, with a slight incline, the further you go the more difficult it becomes, but it is worth it - a very nice climb.

The uphill climb is a pain because of its length. In addition, it gets harder with every kilometre. The first 5, 6km is through the town and it's a fairly steady 4-6％. Then in the forest the fun starts and in addition there is a traffic ban so no cars. From this point it's practically all the way to the summit 8-12％, at times 10％ for quite long stretches. Worth checking out. The last 300m lacks asphalt but is quite compacted earth, easily passable by road.

The view at the top is so-so, the trees obstruct a lot and the view is only to one side. There are no views at all on the way up, as we are in the forest all the time.

A very pleasant driveway. The surface looks newly laid in the second half of the route. Before that it is quite decent. Apart from literally a few potholes the surface is 5+. The ascent to the very top has no asphalt (last 100 metres). Approaching in the late afternoon, I did not encounter any cars on most of the route. The first half of the route leads through the village. The second half is more pleasantly shaded by forest. I highly recommend the ma road.
