Beskidy Mountains (Beskid Mountains, Beskidy, Beskydy, Beskids) is a series of Czech Republic, northwestern Slovakia, and southern Poland, along the border between Poland and the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Beskids may be seen as a continuation of Western Carpathian Mountains. Its highest peak is Babia Gora, 5,658 ft (1,725 m).
The Beskids are rich an forest and coal. In the past they were rich in iron ore.
That is why all folk groups from the Beskidy region perform during TKB.
We invite to listen to - at least during FFGP - the oldest and mostly rooted in Polish tradition songs and music which, is reflected and transformed in the sound of contemporary folk-pop groups.
And finally we invite to taste the beauty of the surrounding Beskidy mountains where the highlanders' culture is being created.
