    Hiking Tour in High Tatras

    8 days

    Hiking tour in National Park of Tatras

    Come and enjoy excellent hiking tours in this oldest national park with highest peaks of Slovakia. Numerous marked tourist trails offer excellent hiking for beginners, more advanced hikers and professional mountain climbers.

    The main attractions are tours to the peaks, while enjoying truly spectacular views, deep valleys, dwarf pines, more than 100 mountain lakes and several waterfalls.

    There are almost 30 peaks over 2500 meters AMSL. The highest peak is Gerlachovský štít, 2654 meters  (8707 ft), the second highest is Lomnický štít, 2634 meters (8641 ft) , it is also possible to visit the top of this peak by cable car.

    National Park of Tatras is home to mountain goats, eagles, brown bears, lynxes and wolves. Our guide will have a binocular, so with little bit of luck we might spot some animals in the distance. Group size is 4 to 8 people. We want to keep it as a Small Hiking Group.

    Our Base Camp for all overnights is in Strbske Pleso – the highest located mountain resort with a mountain lake and breathtaking views. You will stay all overnights in the heart of the mountains.

    This tour with Rysy peak and Krivan peak is only possible between 15 June until 1 November (due to winter closure of the trails).

    Equipment required: waterproof clothing, raincoat, trekking boots, backpack
