This service is irregular, especially in winter. In front of the station in Zakopane, there is a bus stop with a sign that lists the times the bus leaves for Poprad; unfortunately it's in Polish, but it's not hard to figure out. If the service is not running, look for the drivers that stop in front of the bus station. Tell the driver you want to go to Poprad. Your best bet is to get enough people who want to go to make it worth the driver's while. Some locals are also going, so ask them if you can join them to form a group. The driver will drop you off at Łysa Polana (Łysa is pronounced Lwee-Sah in Polish), the border town between Poland and Slovakia. Wait for another bus to take you to Poprad (not long).
