My bad Zakopane also held the Nordic WCh twice but it's not going back there anytime soon. There's still only one road from the nearest airport in Krakow and well, it's notoriously jammed all year. I bet if you took a bus from Kosice you'd get to Zakopane faster than from Krakow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
