Journal Title: Rozprawy Naukowe Akademii Wychowania Fizycznego we Wrocławiu - Year 2016, Vol 55, Issue 4
Abstract
Background. The role of physical activity in the period of late adulthood is a subject increasingly undertaken in scientific discussion. Bearing in mind its influence on the quality of life, the authors attempted to answer the following questions: What are the possibilities for an active winter rest on the mountain routes in Poland? What energy effort accompanies mountaineering? Material and methods. The paper reports a case study analysing measurements taken with a pedometer type SW 700 in two people wandering in the mountains in years 2011–2016. The measurements were carried out on the hiking trails in the Tatra Mountains, the Silesian Beskids, the Żywiec Beskids, the Giant Mountains, the Pieniny, and the Jizera Mountains. Results and conclusions. The form of pedestrian hiking in the mountains in winter conditions is available for elderly tourists because of a wide range of routes and places to choose. Mountain hiking trails can be visited in winter – except for some routes in the Tatra and Giant Mountains because of the danger of avalanches.
