This is the highest peak of Polish part of Bieszczady (the other parts are in Ukraine and a small bit in Slovakia). It is also the fifth highest peak on Crown of Polish Mountains list of highest peaks of every mountain range in the country. Central part of Bieszczadzki Park Narodowy (Bieszczady national park). Although only one marked trail leads to the top of Tarnica, there are many, that cross each other on the pass just below the summit. Most popular trail leads from the former village of Wołosate - it's the shortest but arguably the steepest of them all. There's also another one from Wołosate, but running the long way, climbing pretty much all peaks in Worek Tarnicy (Tarnica sack) group of mountains. Other options of climbing are mainly from the north, and are much longer - would take the whole day for experienced hikers. Tarnica is one of the most superb viewing points in Polish mountains, provided clouds are hanging high enough, as it is famous for it's bad weathers. Last time I climbed it in may 2019 my app to recognise summits showed mountains in Romania, some 130 km away - it was propably something to do with that app, don't believe such long distance view is at all possible. The mounatin became a focal point in media recenty, due to new facilities on most popular trail, namely gravel/wooden "stairs", made by national park authorities, which apparently draw even bigger crowds towards to this place, but it seems like those had been accepted since, and noone is making a fuss about them anymore.
