...is the Polish name for a mountain range in the extreme south-east of Poland, extending into Ukraine and Slovakia. A card that send by Ctnia, a high school student and a member of Postcrossing, she said that this is the typical view around her place, kind of full of not so high mountains.


It forms the western part of what is known in Polish as the Eastern Beskids (Beskidy Wschodnie), and is more generally part of the Outer East Carpathians. The mountain range is situated between the Łupków Pass (640 m) and the Vyshkovskyi Pass (933 m). In a narrower but very frequent sense, Bieszczady refers only to the Western Bieszczady or even only to the part of the range lying within Poland.

The highest peak of Bieszczady is Mt. Pikuy (1405 m) in Ukraine. The highest peak of the Polish part is Tarnica (1346 m).

And this card comes with three lovely stamps...that a card of it would be lovely. Thanks so much Ctnia.
