PARK SNOW Štrbské Pleso

Vysoké Tatry mesto

When someone says: "I'm going skiing in the Tatras," it arouses a degree of envy in almost everyone. Our mini-Alps remain a synonym for prestige and quality skiing. After all, who wouldn't want to carve up perfectly groomed slopes with the highest mountains behind their back? You can treat yourself to such a unique feeling at Štrbské Pleso as well.

Štrbské Pleso needs no introduction. It lies approximately 30 km from the district town of Poprad. You can get here by car, bus, tram, or cog railway. Transport won't be a problem. On the way to Park Snow Štrbské Pleso, you will already be amazed by stunning views of the towering Tatras rock faces. And the best is yet to come.

Štrbské Pleso is a place where natural beauty meets modern technological amenities. Thanks to them, you can ascend from an altitude of 1,351 meters above sea level to over 500 meters higher in just a few minutes. In the resort, 3 chairlifts and 4 ski lifts are at your service. Thanks to a newly built slope, their total length has expanded to nearly 9 kilometers, with the longest descent measuring a full 2.5 kilometers, a figure that some smaller resorts don't reach even when combining all their slopes.

Štrbské Pleso strives to cater to the widest possible range of skiers. Red-marked, intermediate slopes dominate the area. With beginners and families in mind, a new blue slope was also built, making the beauty of the surrounding nature accessible to a broader audience. The ultimate highlight is skiing from Solisko, which offers a fascinating view of Štrbské pleso, Liptovská Mara, Kráľova hoľa, and the entire Podtatranská kotlina basin. A divine view indeed. And behind your back, the Tatras valleys and towering rocky peaks.

Children have been kept in mind too. You can entrust them to instructors at the ski schools. If you bring a snowboard along, you can have fun in the local snowboard park featuring numerous obstacles and jumps. You can try ice climbing on the ice tower, enjoy a romantic walk along the shores of Štrbské pleso, or hike to Vodopád Skok waterfall. Adrenaline lovers don't have to go far; right by the slopes, they can try bungee running, snow rafting, or snow tubing. For the boldest thrill-seekers, we have a special treat: bungee jumping from the large ski jump tower. Thanks to these numerous attractions, an ordinary skiing trip turns into a lifelong memory you will never forget.

Štrbské Pleso is open to everyone. The most demanding guests will certainly choose from one of the luxury hotels equipped with extensive wellness centers or pools. For others, there are affordable hotels and guesthouses with a friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff. If you are looking for budget accommodation, you don't need to shy away from Štrbské Pleso.

Lyžiarske stredisko Račkova dolina

Pribylina

High mountains are made for hikers, skiers, and all nature lovers in general. One of our most famous mountain ranges is Západné Tatry. Its high peaks are exceptionally attractive to tourists from all over Slovakia. Climbing peaks such as Baníkov or Ostrý Roháč is a dream for many. And right beneath these peaks, you will find the picturesque Račkova dolina, where you can enjoy great skiing.

The valley is located in Západné Tatry. Since Račkova dolina is a popular recreational resort, access to it is very easy. Just a short distance away is the village of Pribylina, known primarily for its famous open-air museum, featuring a tour of traditional dwellings and crafts of the Liptov region's inhabitants.

The beginning of the valley sits at an altitude of 960 meters above sea level, with the top of the resort reaching 1,100 meters above sea level. The ski resort itself is not among the largest or most famous. And that is precisely a huge asset for skiers. You won't find crowds of people, overcrowded slopes, or lines at the ski lifts here.

A pair of ski lifts and a pair of slopes await you here. They are designed for a wide spectrum of skiers, mainly due to the medium difficulty profile of the trails. Their total length is 1.4 km, and the entire resort is equipped with an artificial snowmaking system.

The foothills of Západné Tatry are interesting for more than just downhill skiers. For cross-country skiers, long kilometers of groomed trails are available.

It goes without saying that the ski resort includes supplementary services such as a refreshment kiosk, ski equipment rental, and a comprehensive range of accommodation services.

The nature here is truly beautiful. In the immediate vicinity, there is no shortage of high-quality services and attractions for everyone. A good tip for a trip around Liptov is, for example, Demänovské jaskyne. This region is exceptionally welcoming to relaxation enthusiasts. Visit the modern aquapark in Bešeňová, where an interesting water slide tower has been added, or head to the most famous aquapark in Slovakia, Tatralandia. A variety of pools, water slides, whirlpools, and water jets are the best thing you can treat yourself to after a great day of skiing.

Accommodation options in Račkova dolina are exceptionally wide-ranging. The local campsite is popular, and for more demanding guests, several mountain hotels are at your service. Further accommodation options in the area are offered by the villages in the foothills, where you can choose from various private rentals or guesthouses.

Račkova dolina is a well-known hiking destination, yet its slopes remain relatively undiscovered. If you enjoy undisturbed skiing in beautiful surroundings, you don't have to look any further.

Jakubovany (okres Liptovský Mikuláš)

Hiking is one of the most popular sports in our country. It can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of age or fitness level. All you need to do is choose a suitable route, and the beauty of nature will captivate anyone. We are fortunate to live in a country so rich in natural beauty that the whole world can envy us. One of the many stunning places is the Západné Tatry mountains, a range that is often unjustly overlooked.

Nestled directly beneath rocky peaks rising over two thousand meters lies the small village of Jakubovany. You can find it in the Liptov region, just a few kilometers north of Liptovský Hrádok.

Right by the village lies the Jakubovany Studená dolina - Bane ski resort.

The resort is situated at an altitude of 791 to 896 meters above sea level. Its gentle slope makes it ideal for novice skiers. They can look forward to three blue slopes with a total length of 1,700 meters. Jakubovany relies mainly on natural snow. However, given its location close to the Západné Tatry, snow is rarely an issue here. Two ski lifts, 300 meters and just over 500 meters long, take care of skier transportation. They have sufficient capacity, so you won't stand in line and can ski virtually without interruption.

The best thing about the Jakubovany Studená dolina ski resort, however, is its location, as you ski with views of the entire Nízke Tatry range, as well as the Baranec and Kriváň peaks. Not many resorts can offer you such a view. After a rewarding day on the slopes, you can enjoy refreshments at the nearby bar, which offers everything that belongs to a great skiing experience.

Every visitor will find something to love in Jakubovany. Let's start with the least demanding activities. The picturesque Studená dolina valley begins near the village and is perfect for walks after a good lunch. The Trnovec brook flows through it, and its bubbling water provides a great way to cool off, especially in summer. Jakubovany is a popular starting point for hikes to the Žiarska chatu mountain hut. A comfortable paved road leads here, and near the hut, you will find a symbolic cemetery, while inside the hut, delicious treats await. After recharging your batteries, the fittest hikers can head up to Baníkov or Baranec. These are challenging hikes that all alpine hiking enthusiasts will enjoy. Very few places in Slovakia offer such opportunities for active relaxation as Jakubovany.

The wider surroundings of Jakubovany offer even more. From the village, every interesting spot in Liptov is just a stone's throw away. We present just a few interesting trip ideas, though this is by no means an exhaustive list. In nearby Pribylina, you will find a fairy-tale open-air museum, from Podbanské you can enjoy an adrenaline-pumping rafting trip, and you can recharge at the stylish restaurant located in the castle in Liptovský Hrádok. Nearby lies Liptovský Ján, known primarily for its thermal pool. The region's largest town is Liptovský Mikuláš, home to the modern Tatralandia water park. The drive to Slovakia's largest ski resort, Jasná, takes just a few minutes from Jakubovany. However, there are many other resorts in the area waiting for your visit.

Jakubovany offers pleasant accommodation in traditional wooden cottages, private rentals, or a well-equipped guesthouse. All types of accommodation are represented, giving you plenty to choose from.
