You will be welcomed by Ski Park Kubínska hoľa, a ski resort in Oravská Magura with a stunning view. You can see the long slopes from the town of Dolný Kubín itself, and skiing on them is truly worth it. Orava is famous for its piles of snow, and you will enjoy plenty of it at Kubínska hoľa.

The highest point of the ski resort is at an altitude of 1400 meters. The southern orientation of the slopes is a surprise, because despite the constant sunshine, the snow lasts surprisingly long. The modern artificial snowmaking system also helps, and the ski season is guaranteed to extend into the spring.

The Kubínska hoľa ski resort is among the larger ones in Slovakia. You will find 14 km of slopes of all difficulty levels here. You can ski with small children, complete beginners, intermediate skiers, sports skiers, as well as freeride enthusiasts looking for pristine powder.

And as if that were not enough, add another 10 km of groomed tracks for cross-country skiing, and you have the resort of your dreams.

The resort's greatest pride is its second-longest slope, where you can try out all possible inclines. It leads through blue, red, and black sections. Its length is an impressive almost 3 km, and riding it in one go requires a dose of strength and skill. Yes, that was only the second-longest slope. The absolute longest one is also suitable for beginners; it has a gentler incline and is up to 4 km long. Some ski resorts do not even reach that length, and here we are still talking about just one slope. Your comfort will be taken care of by 8 lifts and 2 chairlifts.

Artificial snowmaking, night skiing with a view of the illuminated Dolný Kubín at night, snack bars, ski schools, restaurants, various obstacles in the children's area, or a snowboard school are a matter of course.

Thanks to the long kilometers of slopes, you do not have to worry about any congestion.

Given that Kubínska hoľa towers over one of the most important towns in all of Orava, you will have absolutely no problem finding accommodation.
