Arrival

We will meet you at one of the airports in Slovakia or nearby – Krakow Airport in Poland, Kosice or Bratislava in Slovakia and will drive you  to your hotel to your hotel in Stary Smokovec.

Ideally we should meet latest at around 17:00, but this is matter of agreement.

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel, then catch the cable car from town partway up Lomnicky Peak, the second highest mountain in Slovakia.

From there you’ll hike to the summit of a 2000+m peak, then descend through a rugged valley to Green Lake.

Enjoy lunch at a lakeside hut surrounded by 2500m peaks, then finish your walk through a dwarf pine forest to White Lake.

In the evening your guide can take you to an excellent thermal pool or you can relax in town. Refuel with dinner before heading to bed for a well-deserved night’s sleep.
