Summary/Abstract: We used the contingent valuation (CV) method to calculate the economic value of safety on tourist routes to Rysy, Giewont and on Orla Perć (the Eagle's Path). We conducted the study using a survey executed in three attempts: field work, railway and online. The value of safety on the route to Giewont amounted to nearly 164 million zł, on Orla Perć – 179 million zł, on the route to Rysy – 188 million zł. The total value of safety on routes to Giewont, Rysy and on Orla Perc amounted to just over 531 million zł indexed to the year 2016.
