The family ski resort Sielnica – Brestová is situated above the village of Sielnica, in the Zvolen District, just a few kilometers from the district town. Skiing here takes place in the beautiful mountain environment of the Kremnické vrchy mountains without artificial snowmaking. Four ski lifts and slopes of varying difficulty are available to winter sports enthusiasts. Families with children, beginner skiers, as well as experienced athletes will all find something to enjoy here. The adjacent areas are even favorable for cross-country skiing enthusiasts.

The ski resort is situated at an altitude of 961 m above sea level and features a total slope length of 1.43 km. Three of the four lifts are located in the upper part of Sielnická Poľana. They service two easy slopes suitable for less experienced skiers and one intermediate slope. In the lower part of the resort, skier transport is provided by a fourth, older T-bar ski lift. The challenging slope adjacent to it is suitable for experienced athletes.

The slopes are groomed and rely exclusively on the favorable snow conditions of the mountain area. The ski resort is easily accessible by car from the village of Sielnica. The access road is maintained, but since this is a mountain environment, we recommend packing snow chains along with your ski equipment. Parking is provided directly at the lifts. The ski resort is a very good choice for lovers of smaller family ski areas surrounded by beautiful nature. Shorter but very attractive trails for cross-country skiers are usually prepared around the slopes.

After a great day of skiing, we recommend water relaxation in the nearby Holidaypark Kováčová. Here you can unwind and gather new strength for another day on the slopes or for visiting attractions in the immediate vicinity. In the village of Hronsek, you can take a look at the wooden articular church, the beautiful Baroque manor house, and the oldest local building, the Renaissance manor house, Vodný hrad.

Do you enjoy discovering less crowded ski resorts that are known primarily to locals from surrounding villages? Do you dislike crowded slopes and endless lines? In that case, head to the village of Králiky in the heart of Slovakia.

The small village with this name is located in dense forests just 10 km from Banská Bystrica, towards the geographical center of Slovakia at Kremnické Bane. The local nature is known for its mountains, and those mean only one thing: plenty of snow. The top of the ski resort is at an altitude of 929 meters above sea level. Some Slovak resorts only start at such an altitude, but Králiky cannot complain about a lack of snow. If there happens to be a weaker winter after all, almost the entire resort is equipped with an artificial snowmaking system. The area of Banská Bystrica and Kremnické vrchy has a rich skiing tradition, and thanks to good snow conditions, it is the most sought-after area for cross-country skiers.

Who will come into their own at the Ski Králiky resort? Every beginner skier. Králiky is focused on beginner skiers, and all slopes are marked in blue, indicating the lowest difficulty. If you have young children, want to learn to ski at an older age, or prefer relaxing skiing, it is one of the best alternatives.

The total length of all slopes is approximately 2.5 km. It is not much, but it is sufficient for beginners. Comfortable transport is provided by 2 ski lifts, one of which is a children's lift, and a chairlift. Thanks to the chairlift itself, lines do not form, and you do not have to worry about not getting enough skiing time. There is a ski school in the resort, so you can make use of the services of true professionals. You will also find snowboarding instructors here. When you tire of skis, there is snowtubing. Conversely, if you still cannot get enough even after regular skiing, you can enjoy an illuminated slope during evening skiing. Refreshments in the form of a snack bar and a restaurant are a matter of course at the resort.

As we have already mentioned, the center of Slovakia and especially Kremnické vrchy are exceptionally popular among cross-country skiers. Several beautiful trails lead directly from the resort, which you certainly must not miss.

Right by the lifts, there are cabins from which you will be just a stone's throw from the slope. Further accommodation options await you right in the village of Králiky, private rooms and guesthouses of various quality and prices. Almost everything is available to choose from, and you are sure to find the type of accommodation you prefer.

If you want to delve into the secrets of skiing and all its beauty, Ski Králiky will represent a great choice for you.
