Applied studies concerning topoclimatic description are an important element in the spatial management of the landscape. One of the aims of these studies is to predict the impact of climate on natural environment by determining the frequency and likelihood of the occurrence of phenomena affecting the basic life processes. The objctive of this study was to determine the differentiation of minimum air temperature in Krakowskie Valleys Region (Poland). The study area is located in the Dolinki Krakowskie Landscape Park in VI Malopolska Natural Forest Region, 8 - Krakowsko-Czestochowska Upland Subregion. Spatial description of the variability of minimum air temperature of the area under study was based on studies carried out in the years 2002-03. Most clear contrasts in minimum temperature occurred between the top of heights and valley bottom. The highest probability of the occurrence of ground frosts was in the closed valley-bottoms and in lower parts of gentle slopes, the lowest - in upper parts of steep slopes
