Skiing and winter activities

Ski touring that combines alpine hiking and skiing is one of very popular kinds of sport in the High Tatras.

Entertainment for children and adults.

From 1st November 2022, selected alpine tourist trails are closed so that the nature and animals can relax. The closure applies mainly to higher located trails, mountain saddles and summits. However, all trails running to alpine chalets (except the Chalet below Mt Rysy) are open all year round.

Cross-country skiing belongs to winter in the High Tatras, just like downhill skiing or ski mountaineering. Excellent cross-country trails are prepared for you in each of the Tatra villages with a total length of more than 75 km.

Live the beautiful winter time in the Tatras and take an unforgettable experience from the Tatra Ice Dome. See the art of skilled carvers who transformed more than 225 tons of ice into an ice structure.

Hrebienok (1285m) is an attractive destination for visitors to the High Tatras. The oldest tourist center, Starý Smokovec, is the traffic hub of the town of Vysoké Tatry.
