It is easy to walk or ride a bike. It is closed to car traffic. The path was laid out by the Cracow Academy of Scholarship as early as the 1870s .

Location and route
The red marked path begins in the Polish spa town of Szczawnica not far from the Nowy Przewóz pier and the Orlica hut and ends at the Slovak monastery of Červený Kláštor . In Červený Kláštor you can return to the Polish side via the bridge i Sromowce Niżne and return to the Nowy Przewóz pier via the blue ridge path. You should plan a whole day for the circular route. For the Pieninenweg about three hours or one hour by bike. Bicycles can be rented in several places on Dunajec.
