The landscape of the valley consists of granite peaks of the High Tatras, large areas of boulders, screes, alpine meadows, alpine peat bogs and dwarf pine patches. The slopes of the mountains and the bottom of the valley are covered with dwarf pine shrubs and other alpine plants. There are several glacial lakes in the valley with a total area of 61 ha. The largest of them is the Great Polish Pond located at an altitude of 1665 m asl. The other lakes are: Zadni Staw Polski, Czarny Staw Polski, Mały Staw Polski, Przedni Staw Polski and Wole Oko.
