Smooth transport within the resort is provided by 5 Tatrapoma ski lifts with a total transport capacity of 2,500 people/hour.

During the day, the tracks are groomed several times.

A great new feature that you can try at the resort is snow rafting. This is an unusual adrenaline activity where you slide down the slope in a two-person rubber boat. If you are more of a romantic soul, invite your significant other to evening skiing. You can enjoy romance on skis on the 400 m long illuminated slope.

Foreign tourists are also welcome at the resort, with whom the staff can communicate in English and Hungarian.

In the quiet and picturesque environment of the Volovské vrchy, directly under the massif of the Radzim peak, near the village of Vyšná Slaná, lies Lyžiarske stredisko Július, which for years has provided an ideal base for winter sports enthusiasts, families with children, and fans of peaceful recreation in the Gemer region. The complex was built in close proximity to the well-known Chata Radzim, offering a pleasant and intimate atmosphere far away from crowded major resorts.

What you will find in the resort

Right on the slope, visitors can use a regularly groomed light slope approximately 500 meters long, which is ideal for beginner skiers and families with children. Two ski lifts are available in the resort. The seasonal offer also includes popular night skiing accompanied by basic refreshments right under the slope.

In terms of practical logistical details, mobile coverage in this valley is average to good, but a stable Wi-Fi connection is not available in the outdoor areas of the resort. Due to the smaller scale of operation and a more remote location outside major urban centers, card payment is available only to a limited extent or not at all, so it is strongly recommended to carry sufficient cash for purchasing skipasses or refreshments. During the peak season, weekends, or organized stays, early booking in advance is required for accommodation capacities and children's camps. Car access is provided directly to the resort via roads from the village of Vyšná Slaná, with parking available for visitors in designated areas near the lifts.

Who the place is suitable for

The location enthusiastically attracts families with children, beginners, ski courses, school trips, as well as recreational skiers looking for a quieter skiing experience without long queues. Gentle slopes are ideal for teaching ski lessons and making the first turns on snow, while the surrounding terrain also offers opportunities for easy winter hiking.

Where to go for a trip in the surroundings

The surrounding nature of the Volovské vrchy invites you to hike up the nearby Radzim massif with impressive rock viewpoints, or to the nearby town of Dobšiná. In the wider region, it is also worth visiting the famous Dobšinská ľadová jaskyňa cave or historical monuments in Rožňava.

Accommodation options in the region

Directly in the area of the Július recreational complex and in the neighborhood of Chata Radzim, accommodation options suitable for school trips, children's camps, or smaller groups are available.
