The High Tatras Mountains

THE HIGH TATRAS MOUNTAINS

High Tatras, Slovakia

‘The hiiiiiiiills are alive with the sound of musiiiiiiiiiiic.’

Pipe down.
This impressive mountain range (biggest in the Carpathian Mountains, dontchya know) towers over most of Eastern Europe.

It’s got lakes, meadows, waterfalls and forests, plus a whole lot of walking up then down.
Get there in the in-betweeny season after summer sun and before skiing to have the hills to yourself...

Aside from a few wild bears, wolves and lynx - jump on an official tour to try and spot these shy guys.

You can get to the High Tatras from lots of places, but a good bet is Poprad mountain resort in Slovakia.
