Mylnicka and Furkotska Valleys

During a one-week trip around Slovakia we also drove to the High Tatras. We chose Štrbské Pleso as the starting point. We selected a circular route that is nicely marked with yellow markers. A literally paved path after an hour and a half leads to the Skok waterfall. A bit above it there is a smaller lake. Then we continue on a gentle path to the next larger lake and then on a slightly steeper section to the Bystre saddle, which was also the highest point of the tour – 2314 m. On the last part chains assist during the ascent. Then followed a descent to the other side to the next lake. The paved path starts descending, which after a while turns into a slightly steeper descent. The yellow marked path joins the red one, which again leads to the starting point. For the entire loop we comfortably needed less than 6 hours as tourists. The views along the path were really something special so I definitely recommend the route.

The tour really rests the eyes as along the path there are plenty of lakes, waterfalls, interesting rocks covered with green lichens... Quite a different world than what I'm used to from our mountains. It's interesting that you rarely meet anyone with hiking poles, which most hikers use on similar paths here.
