Ski resorts Jasenská dolina

Are you a beginner skier looking for a ski resort where you can slowly, step by step and without worries, improve your skills? Or are you looking for a suitable place for a winter vacation with young children? Then you need a ski resort with gentle, well-maintained slopes, a complete range of services, and good transport accessibility.

It is Jasenská dolina. It lies at the foot of Veľká Fatra, just a few kilometers from Martin. Thanks to the nearby highway, transport is not a problem. All you need to do is head to the village of Belá – Dulice and you are there.

Jasenská dolina consists of two ski resorts. First, you will come across the Kašová resort, located right at the entrance of the valley. Here you will find a large-capacity parking lot where you can leave your car and head out for winter fun. The resort is located approximately 2.5 km from the village of Belá – Dulice, but a well-maintained road leads here.

What does Kašová offer? Snack bars, ski schools, rental shop, up to 7 km of cross-country skiing trails, and high-quality service. In short, everything you will need during your skiing trip. And now onto the main thing, the slopes. These are predominantly blue, which means the least demanding. There are only two sections where the slope is steeper. It is an ideal terrain for families with children and inexperienced skiers. Transport is handled by 6 ski lifts and 1 four-seater chairlift, so you can forget about long queues. The chairlift in particular has contributed to improving the skiing quality, and with a length of almost 650 meters, it is the resort's longest transport facility. The longest slope in this section is exactly 800 meters long. The entire resort is equipped with artificial snowmaking and is even fully illuminated. You will spend time on skis not only during the days, but during the evenings as well.

If you are a more demanding skier and the slopes of Kašová are not steep enough, continue along Jasenská dolina for about one more kilometer. This is where the Lehota resort is located. However, check in advance whether it is open, as there is only one 700-meter-long lift here and the resort does not have artificial snowmaking. You must therefore rely solely on natural snow. In favorable conditions, medium-difficulty slopes await you, the longest of which reaches up to 1,100 meters. This will be appreciated by more experienced skiers as well.

Between the two resorts, Lehota and Kašová, there are beautiful trails for cross-country skiers. Furthermore, the surrounding nature of Veľká Fatra directly invites you to explore it. Borišov and Ploská are popular tourist attractions throughout the year. In winter, you can try them with ski touring skis or snowshoes, for example. In Jasenská dolina, you will discover the magic of winter hiking.

Right in Jasenská dolina, there are simple cottages and guesthouses tailor-made for skiers. You will be close to the slope, enjoy a warm grog in the evening, and make many new friends. Some may prefer accommodation right in the village; in that case, additional accommodation options are available in Belá – Dulice. Regardless of whether you decide to visit Jasenská dolina for just a day or longer, you will enjoy its slopes like royalty.

The current trend in ski resorts focuses on family skiing. They are characterized by well-groomed, yet not overly steep slopes, and above all, a wide range of services. One such resort is Snowland Valčianska dolina.
