Welcome to Tatra Mountains
It’s hard to overstate the majesty of Slovakia’s Tatra Mountains. This adventurer’s playground ripples east from Liptovský Mikuláš and north towards the Polish border. Hikers can access world-class trails, which sparkle with waterfalls and wildflowers, to incredible lookouts, while snowfall brings skiers rushing to resorts across the range. The Tatra Mountains have a gentle side, too: unwind in spa-and-lake getaway Štrbské Pleso, or make merry at the lesser-touristed eastern edge of the range, the Belá Tatras, where highlander folk culture comes to the fore.
