Sub-Tatra Trench (Polish: Rów Podtatrzański; Slovakian: Podtatranská brázda) (514.14) is a mesoregion located below the Tatra Mountains, part of the Orava-Podhale Depression.

The regional valleys incline in the north, covered with alluvial fans, formed via upper course river flow.

The Zakopane Valley has three gravel top soil coverings from three separate glacial periods.

The western part and eastern borderlands of the Podtatrzański Trench are forested.
