L'essentiel des Basses Tatras

Low Tatras Essentials

The Low Tatras National Park encompasses Slovakia's second-highest mountain range, defined by the granite peaks of Ďumbier and Dereše and the eastern summit of Kráľova hoľa. This region features the Demänovská Ice Cave's subterranean formations and the glacial Vrbické pleso, the range's largest natural lake. Architectural highlights include the stone Chmarošský Viaduct near Telgárt, while the village of Liptovský Ján offers the natural "Kaďa" thermal spring. Cultural attractions like Mini Slovensko showcase scaled models of Slovak monuments.
