	Tatra Mountains
		The Polish Tatras are considerably a small part of the entire range and constitute only one-fifth of the entire range of Tatras, while the rest of the range is situated on the Slovakian side.
		However, the Polish Tatras are blessed with some of the most spectacular views — for instance, the most beautiful nook of the High Tatras (one section of the Tatras) Dolina Rybiego Potoku, and the most scenic valley in the Western Tatras, Dolina Koscieliska, are both situated in the Polish section of the Tatras.
		The Tatras draw over three million visitors through out the year and as expected, tourism is the largest industry of the area.

	Geomorphological hazards and risks in the High Tatra Mountains
		Important palaeoclimatic changes that went on in the High Tatra region in the Pliocene and the Pleistocene were, together with the geological features of the mountain vault surface and with the neotectonic activity, the main factors enabling the evolution of high mountain landforms.
		Geomorphological analysis of the crest part of the mountains showed that the development of the high rock slopes on crystalline rocks was determined mainly by their morphostructural position, in detail by the local arrangement of tectonic discontinuities and by the extent of glacigenic and cryogenic modellation in the Pleistocene (Photo 3).
		The mountains as a whole have preserved marked features of glacial relief, the retreat of the ice and the transformation by postglacial denudation of which are the latest stage of the High Tatra Mts polygenetic development.
