We are going to the Tarta mt's for the day from Krakow could any one suggest any good day hikes.
We are thinking about climbing Mt. Rysy? Any comments on this.

I did Rysy in High Tatras mt's (Vysoke Tatry) but from Slovakia side. I know that from Polish side the hike is even more strenuous. At places there are chains. Not the best hike for people who are afraid of heights. But you won't need any mountain climbing equipment. Just good boots, extra warm clothes in your backpack just in case. Start in good weather and early. Weather sometimes has tendency to change by mid afternoon and you don't want to be up there in a thunderstorm. Even Vladimir Iljic Lenin did Rysy from Polish side so good luck. Very beautiful scenery.
