Hiking Tour in the High Tatras

Come and enjoy excellent hiking tours in this oldest national park with the highest peaks in 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.

As the symbol of Slovak, mountains are considered spectacular Mt. Kriváň, 2494 meters (8182 ft).

National Park of Tatras is home to mountain goats, eagles, brown bears, lynxes, and wolves. Our guide will have a binocular, so with a little bit of luck, we might spot some animals in the distance. The 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 are only possible between 15 June until 1 November (due to the winter closure of the trails).

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