Muszyny w jednostce magurskiej zewnętrznych Karpat fliszowych Jacek Rajchel*, Jerzy Chrząstowski**, Lucyna Rajchel*** W miejscowości Złockie k. Muszyny, w krynickiej strefie tektoniczno-facjalnej jednostki magurskiej, znajduje się unikatowa mofeta CO2. Jest ona położona w potoku Złockim powyżej wsi. Mofeta w większości jest przykryta wodami potoku i wodą mineralną typu szczawa wypływającą z zatopionych źródeł, z obfitym rdzawym osadem ochry. Na dziale wodnym w kierunku wsi Jastrzębik znajduje sie wiele innych mofet, a wszystkie są usytuowane wzdłuż równoleżnikowego nasunięcia w osiowej części antykliny Szczawnika­ 3 Zło ckiego-Jastrzęb ika. Mofeta w Złockiem wydziela ok. 15 tys m CO2/d. Dwutlenek węgla pochodzi z głębokiego podłoża subdukowanego pod orogen Karpat. W 1998 r. mofeta w Złockiem została objęta ochronąjako pomnikprzyrody nieożywionej im. Pro! H Świdzińskiego. Jest ona również wytypowana do ochrony w charakterze rezerwatu przyrody nieożywionej, oraz proponowana do umieszczenia na europejskiej liście stanowisk geoochrony.

  • Muszyna Almanac for Little Homeland 1991-2015
    1991 NEXT Muszyna Almanac for Little Homeland 1991-2015 Introduction Over twenty-five years during which the Muszyna Almanac has been appearing, we have assembled between its covers a wealth of knowledge on the history and culture as well as the present day of Muszyna, Krynica, Żegiestów and a number of localities bordering the historic “State of Muszyna”, the southern Nowy Sącz district and the northern Spiš region. The knowledge we have gathered is now available to all interested parties online. Our yearbook’s traditional and electronic versions have numerous readers both in Poland and abroad. We live in times of dynamically developing contacts amongst representatives of different European communities. Moreover, we are dealing with a great wave of migration to and from Poland. Our compatriots living abroad have neighbours to whom they must convey knowledge about the land of their forefathers in the language of the country of residence. Therefore, if we want to present our achievements to the world and have other communities recognise them, we must also speak about our local history and culture in foreign languages. This publication has been prepared in five different language versions — Polish, English, German as well as Content in shortened Slovak, France and Hungarian versions. We invite you to take an imaginary trip with us along the Almanac’s pathways which serve to build a sense of pride in the history, culture and contemporary times of our Little Homeland. Chapter I The first chapter proposes a stroll across the Muszyna Almanac’s 25 yearbooks. The next chapter deals with the content of the Chapter Almanac’s bibliography.

There is no greater pleasure for a tourist than to discover and explore new places, find delight in nature and feel a delicate breath of warm wind. Once we find such places we cherish them in our memories for the rest of our lives. The Nowy Sącz land creates unforgettable pictures in our minds. The Nowy Sącz land is for everyone: those who prefer just revel in nature, the whole families with children, the elderly, the sportsmen – even those who are keen on extreme sports. Everyone will find something just for themselves. Each and every visitor will discover a place of their own that is bound not only to astonish but also to invite them back for the rest of life. Our region is worth visiting! CABLE CAR LIFT The cable car lift in Krynica-Zdrój is an element of the Jaworzyna Krynicka ski station. The cable car climbs the slope of the Jaworzyna Krynicka Mountain up to a height of 1,114 m above sea level. The journey to the summit takes several minutes. In winter, skiers (and in summer – cyclists) can carry their sports equipment in the cable cars.

    EKONOMIA I ŚRODOWISKO • 2 (61) • 2017 Franciszek MRÓZ RELIGIOUS TOURISM IN AREAS OF ENVIRONMENTAL VALUE IN POLAND Franciszek Mróz, PhD – Pedagogical University of Cracow Correspondence address: Institute of Geography ul. Podchorazych 2; 30-084 Krakow e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRCT: The study presents pilgrimage sites located in environmentally valuable areas – the areas subject to two forms of nature protection in Poland, i.e. national parks and natural landscape parks. The purpose of the paper is to present, in quantitative terms, shrines in the protected areas of Poland and to analyse the scale and forms of tourism relating to these sites. The subject of the research includes only shrines of the Roman Catholic Church. A descriptive-analytic method, a dynamic-com- parative method, as well as statistical methods were used to present the study results. Over 70 of more than 830 shrines that operate in Poland nowadays are located in areas of nature protected by legislation. At present, in the area of nine Polish national parks, there are twelve shrines and pilgrimage sites that are frequently visited by pilgrims and tourists traveling for religious or reli- gious and cognitive reasons. Nowadays, in the area of Polish natural landscape parks (with buffer zones), there are more than 60 shrines.
