abstract = {In this paper authors present an evaluation of bioclimatic conditions in the eastern part of Poland in regard to selected forms of recreation and tourism. For this purpose the biothermal-meteorological weather classification by K. Błażejczyk was used. Meteorological data for the period 1981–2015 were obtained from the Institute of Meteorology and  Water Management meteorological stations at Białystok, Lublin-Radawiec and Lesko. It was found that in Eastern Poland the most favourable conditions for sunbathing (SB) and aerotherapy (AB) occur from mid-April to mid-October, but in Lesko better conditions for these recreation  types are more frequent during the autumn moths. As for mild forms of recreation (MR) weather conditions are favourable more often during the year in Lesko than in Lublin or Białystok. As for intense activity (AR), favourable weather conditions occur during most days of the year. The type of recreation favoured by weather conditions in Eastern Poland for the shortest period of the year is ski tourism (ST). In Lublin and Białystok this period lasts from the beginning of February to the first decade of March. In Lesko the ski tourism season begins at the end of December and it is twice as long as in the other stations.},
