The author investigated the listing and found that such extreme prices are typically caused by owner pricing settings or platform algorithm errors rather than genuine market rates. Summer accommodation in Gdańsk is genuinely expensive, but not at such levels.

Tourists hiking in the mountains, including in Karkonosze National Park, frequently build stone cairns along the trails. An educator from the park warns that this practice is harmful — it disrupts habitats for insects and other animals living beneath the stones and damages fragile mountain ecosystems. Building such structures inside national parks is illegal.
