Low Tatras

The Low Tatras is situated between the picturesque valleys of the Váh and Hron rivers, a mountain range that is about 80 km long and one that became a National Park in 1978. The three main peaks of the mountain range are about 2000 m high, offering stunning
views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.

Although the High Tatras are the most popular in Slovakia, the Low
Tatras come a very close second, attracting a large number of tourists each year. Since joining the EU, many new hotels, camping sites and ski lifts are being built.

 

Away from the touristy areas you can also get back to nature as the forests are filled with wild animals (including bears). The unspoilt forests are particularly popular with hikers, who have numerous trails to chose from. And no trip to the Low Tatras would be complete without a visit to the Cave of Liberty, the largest show cave in Slovakia.
