Krościenko nad Dunajcem (pronounce: IPA-pl| [|k|r|o|ś|ć|e|n|k|o|] ) is a village in southern Poland situated in the Nowy Targ County in Lesser Poland Voivodeship since 1999 (previously in Nowy Sącz Voivodeship, from 1975-1998).

City rights were given to Krościenko by Kazimierz Wielki in 1348.

Numerous tourist attractions include Pieniny National Park Museum, the 14th-century church rebuilt in Baroque style in 1589, and in summer, walk trails in the Pieniny mountains. There are holiday cottages and paths for mountain biking both advanced and easy. In winter, ski lift at Szczawnica-Palenica is available at 6 km distance.
