Your guide will show you how to put the snowshoes on, and give you instruction on how to walk in them so you have the best technique. And then we’re off!The Tatra Mountains are an extremely popular place for walking and winter activities, and it’s not hard to see why. Covering 785 sq km (300 sq miles), they form the natural border between Slovakia and Poland and are the highest mountains in the Carpathian range. We’ve picked an area called the Beliankse Tatras, part of the High Tatras, which provide a stunning setting in the easternmost part of the mountains.Starting at the Strednica Ski Centre, you’ll follow the ridge of Spisska Magura. This relatively easy terrain is the perfect setting to try snowshoeing, as it enables you to enjoy the views of snowy white peaks along the way, too. Your walk follows the routes that were used long ago by local smugglers to bring goods from Poland to Slovakia and vice versa. Along the way we enjoy a packed lunch in the fresh air, and our guide will tell us many interesting stories and legends linked to the area. We end our walk in the Bachledova Valley. Here, you will once again meet your driver for the transfer back to your starting village.
