Adrenaline, fun and sport Osturňa

The Strachan e-bike rental shop in Ždiar represents a modern cycling tourism center that opens doors for visitors to comfortably explore the ridges of Spišská Magura and the Belianske Tatras.

The location is situated directly in the mountain village of Ždiar, in the Poprad district, as part of the well-known Strachan Resort. The rental shop features a wide fleet of quality full-suspension and hardtail e-bikes from renowned brands, which are regularly serviced and adapted to the demanding terrain of Tatra cycling routes. The main advantage of this place is its strategic position directly at the starting point of popular routes leading towards Monkova dolina, Spišská Magura, or the border crossings to Poland. The rental staff provides expert advice on choosing the right bike size, adjusts suspension parameters, and acquaints visitors with the operation of the electric motor and battery. The services also include the rental of essential safety equipment and recommendations for optimal routes according to current fitness and weather conditions. Thanks to electric assistance, places with panoramic views that would otherwise be intended only for top athletes during classic cycling become accessible to cyclists. The area is connected to the resort's gastro facilities, allowing visitors to recharge their energy before or after the ride in an authentic Gorals environment.

What can you find here?

On the premises of the rental shop, you will find modern e-bikes for both adults and children, a charging station for e-bikes, and a service corner for minor adjustments before the ride. Complete equipment is available, including helmets, locks, child seats, and cycling maps with marked routes in the surroundings of Ždiar. Visitors can also use the parking lot in close proximity and the sanitary facilities of the Strachan Resort.

Who is the place suitable for?

The rental services are ideal for families with children who want to take trips together in hilly terrain, as well as for recreational cyclists looking for comfort and the joy of movement without excessive physical exhaustion. It is also sought after by seniors, for whom e-bikes enable a return to mountain trails, and nature lovers who want to manage to visit several more distant locations in a single day. Given the demanding nature of the terrain, basic bicycle handling skills are recommended.

What can you visit in the surroundings?

Directly from Ždiar, you can set off by bike to the Chodník korunami stromov in Bachledova dolina or to the picturesque Monkova dolina. A short ride away is the Belianska jaskyňa in Tatranská Kotlina or the distinctive village of Osturňa, which is a conservation reserve of folk architecture. For more proficient cyclists, an attractive destination is the route through Spišská Magura, which offers unique views of the ridge of the Belianske Tatras.

The gates of Strachankovo open for you every year during the summer season so that you, together as a family, can come and enjoy all the activities that this fun family park offers you. Visit the famous, picturesque village of Ždiar, where you will enjoy a truly fantastic day full of fun beneath the Tatras.

During the summer period, in the months of July and August, you can come every day and buy a ticket to the world of adventure. Family Park Strachankovo is also in limited weekend operation during September. However, everything depends on the weather, which in case of bad conditions may restrict the opening of this park.

At Family park Strachankovo, children of all age groups will find something to enjoy. Parents can also travel back to their younger days and enjoy some of the attractions together with them. You can roast sausages at the Family Barbecue station, play in the sandbox, watch performances by animators at the amphitheater, or relax in the treehouses. Everyone will be delighted by the animals at the Goral farm. Feed them, pet them, and play with them. Climbing frames are ready for all the children in the park.

Have you heard about the Ždiar legend? People in the village reportedly used to burn charcoal in the past. One of the charcoal burners built his cottage with a window through which the moonlight illuminated it. Others in the village liked it so much that they also built wooden cottages next to the charcoal burner and named the settlement after “Zor”, hence Ždiar. This station is also part of Family park Strachankovo.

After a day full of fun, you can fill your bellies at the local snack bar. If you decide to explore the surroundings further, rent an e-bike. The largest rental shop under the Tatras is located in the park. Since the park is large in size and rich in attractions, you can organize a trip for kindergarten children with us or an experiential tour as part of natural science.
