Vr谩tna Valley

Top choice in Slovakia

LoginSave

Limestone pinnacles and thick forest conspire to make Vr谩tna Valley one of Slovakia's most majestic areas to hike or ski. A scenic road winds south from Terchov谩 up through craggy Ties艌avy Gorge, past picnic sites and roadside lookouts, to Vratna V媒t'ah cable-car station. It hauls you to Snilovsk茅 saddle (1524m) below two peaks, Chleb (1647m) and Velk媒 Kriv谩艌 (1709m). Both peaks are popular hikes, each taking 1陆 to two hours (return).

For a long, tough trek, hike northeast from Chleb over 贬谤辞尘辞惫茅 (1636m), Polud艌ov媒 gr煤艌 (1460m) and Stoh (1608m) to Medziholie saddle (1185m), which takes about 5陆 hours (one way). From there you can descend on the green trail to 艩tefanov谩 village where there's a bus stop, accommodation and restaurants.
