Mountains & Ski Resorts in Slovakia
map viewThe High Tatras are a compact high-mountain range on the Slovak–Polish border, and every place on this page lies there. Štrbské pleso and Popradské pleso are glacial lakes surrounded by granite peaks, linked by a popular hiking route. Tatranská Lomnica and Starý Smokovec are the main resort villages, and trails lead from there to Hrebienok, with waterfalls and mountain huts nearby. In winter the resorts become ski areas. For hiking, July and August bring the warmest and most settled weather.
