Hiking: It is certainly the most popular activity in this area. There is a variety of different ways of transport that will facilitate the access to the starting place for your hiking trail. The whole area of the Tatras is threaded with hiking trails. At an altitude of approximately 2000 m you can find mountain chalets where you can sleep if you decide to go to one of the longer and more difficult hikes, or in case you decide to conquer some of the peaks. The staff of these chalets will gladly prepare various kinds of food for you, so you do not have to carry very large food supplies with you. You will find here plenty of easy hiking trails, more difficult trails, but also plenty of climbing opportunities; your selection of the trail depends only on your physical condition. It is very unwise to go hiking without the necessary equipment, which means without a map and a tourist guide, especially if you decide for a more difficult climb. It is also necessary to keep in mind that the weather can change during your hike from the completely clear sky to the rain storm in just a few minutes. It is always necessary to inform the hotel reception which trail you have chosen, how many people you are in a group and when approximately you expect to return from the hike.
Climbing: This area is well-known to climbers from near and far for its excellent climbing opportunities. However, it is necessary to bring a climbing gear with you, because there are no rentals of this type in this area at all. In the mountain chalets you can find hand-made maps and explanations to diverse climbs.
Cycling: There are plenty of excellent cycle routes here, both natural and challenging for experienced cyclists, or classic asphalt roads between villages, towns and settlements of the High Tatras. Without any problems you can rent mountain bikes.
