Podsarnie [pɔtˈsarɲe], (Slovak: Sŕnie) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Raba Wyżna, within Nowy Targ County, Lesser Poland Voivodeship, in southern Poland. It lies approximately 8 kilometres (5 mi) west of Raba Wyżna, 20 km (12 mi) north-west of Nowy Targ, and 56 km (35 mi) south of the regional capital Kraków.[1]

The village lies in the drainage basin of the Black Sea (through Orava, Váh and Danube rivers), in the historical region of Orava (Polish: Orawa), which since the Middle Ages belonged to Hungary.

The local primary school is the first school in Poland to be named after Lech i Maria Kaczyński, presidential couple that perished in the Smolensk air disaster on 10 April 2010.
