Transportation and tourism
Czarny Dunajec is about 60 miles south of Kraków with its international airport. The nearest railway station is in Nowy Targ.
The town is on intersection of the east-west and north-south voievodship roads, that are one of main ways to the Western Tatra and Zakopane mountain region as well as the nearby Chocholow thermal spa.
A local railway line through the valley was dismantled and converted to a cycling path.
Important peatlands are situated to the west and north-west of the town. Czarny Dunajec and Piekielnik were declared as a protected spa area by the Polish government in 2016.
