Welcome to Slovakia! After your arrival and settling in, you’ll meet your guide and fellow travellers for a welcome briefing and a glimpse into the adventures ahead. For those eager to dive straight into the action, there’s an optional lunchtime rafting experience — a fun and refreshing way to kick off your trip and enjoy the beauty of the river from a completely different perspective. This all depends on your arrival time, however, so if you wish to attend the rafting experience, please pick morning flights.
After breakfast, we’ll hop on a scenic mountain train, taking us deeper into the heart of the High Tatras for today’s adventure. Our hike follows a beautiful mountain stream, winding its way past a series of waterfalls, wooden bridges, and rocky steps. It’s an easy to moderate trail, covering 10.4 km with an ascent of 410 metres, and takes around 4-5 hours at a relaxed pace. Surrounded by peaceful forest and the sound of flowing water, this is a perfect day to slow down and enjoy nature.
After our breakfast, our transfer will take us to the start of our hike to one the most beautiful lakes in Slovakia. Today’s hike leads us to one of the most picturesque mountain lakes in the Tatra Mountains, known for its vivid green colour and dramatic rocky backdrop. The trail takes us through forested paths and alpine meadows, gradually ascending 670 metres over 15.4 km — a moderate challenge. Once we reach the lake, we’ll stop for a well-deserved lunch at a charming mountain hut nestled right by the water, offering traditional dishes and panoramic views. After soaking in the scenery, we’ll make our way back. In the evening, you’ll have the option to visit a local spa for some well-earned relaxation.
After breakfast, we’ll head out on a beautiful hike linking two serene alpine lakes, set against the stunning backdrop of the Tatra Mountains. The trail gently winds through forested paths and open mountain views, offering a peaceful and rewarding experience. With an ascent of 380 metres over 10.5 km, the route takes around 4-5 hours at a comfortable pace. It’s a lovely way to soak in the last moments of mountain magic. In the evening, there's the option to join a farewell dinner — a relaxed and joyful way to wrap up the journey together.
After a week of exploring mountains, forests, and breathtaking national parks, it’s time to say farewell. Enjoy a final breakfast together before we assist with departure transfers. You’ll head home with tired legs, a full heart, and lasting memories of Slovakia’s wild beauty.
