Lyžiarske stredisko Oravské Veselé

Oravské Veselé

Orava is among the coldest places in Slovakia. That is something that will particularly please winter lovers and skiing enthusiasts in particular. Recent years have been characterized by warmer winters with less snow. Despite this, Orava currently represents a bright exception, and you can look forward to plenty of snow here throughout the entire winter.

One of the villages that cannot complain about a lack of winter is Oravské Veselé. It is located almost at the very edge of Slovakia, just a few kilometers north of the town of Námestovo and near the border with Poland. This region was uninhabited for a long time; it experienced harsh winters and poorer harvests. However, the real wealth was hidden in the mountains and forests, which offered an abundance of wood. It was thanks to timber logging that the first inhabitants settled between Pilsko and Babia hora.

The village had its highest population at the beginning of the twentieth century, but a lack of jobs and poor living conditions drove many locals out into the world. Today, only the most loyal countrymen remain here, which is why you will encounter extraordinary warmheartedness throughout the entire Orava region.

If you are looking for a quiet skiing holiday at great prices, the Oravské Veselé ski resort is an ideal choice for you. It is a smaller resort, but one where you can ski to your heart's content with your whole family and friends.

The top of the slope is located at an altitude of 780 meters above sea level. This is not much, but combined with the harsh conditions in Orava, concerns about having enough snow are out of place. The length of the ski lift is just under 500 meters. This lift enjoys great popularity, especially among locals, whom you will meet most frequently on the slope.

The slope is well-balanced and suitable for families with children. In the lower section, children can learn or hone their skiing skills. Meanwhile, parents can enjoy a snappier ride on the track, which is regularly groomed by a snowcat. Large families will be pleased by one more thing: ski pass prices. For what you would pay at a famous resort for a single day, the whole family can ski in Oravské Veselé.

In addition to the ski resort, its immediate surroundings are also worth mentioning. For example, the town of Námestovo or Tvrdošín. In the latter, you will find a gorgeous all-wooden church, which is even inscribed on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage list. Well-known attractions include the majestic Oravská priehrada reservoir or the forest railway in Nová Bystrica. If you want to ski on other slopes in Orava, visit Oravská Lesná or nearby Zázrivá. Both offer top-notch skiing at more than reasonable prices.

There is plenty of accommodation capacity to choose from directly in the village of Oravské Veselé. More demanding tourists will certainly choose accommodation in a guesthouse. Private rentals or increasingly popular mountain cabins are equally attractive choices. Some of them are in close proximity to the ski resort, and you will be just a few steps from the slope. Treat yourself to peace and quiet and the authentic Orava atmosphere during your ski holiday in the wonderful surroundings of Oravské Veselé.
