SK: High Tatra Mountains – A Trek Across Mlynicka and Furkotska Valleys
Thanks to the beauty and difficulty of individual trails, the High Tatras fulfill the needs of the most demanding tourists. A trek across Mlynicka and Furkotska valley takes an entire day. Mountain hikers prefer this route. Our photogallery takes a closer look at this tour across two Tatranian valleys. We start off by Strbske Lake. From there we follow a yellow trail to Mlynicke Valley. Then we go by Skok waterfall, Pleso nad Skokem lake and Capie lake.
The terrain goes uphill to Bystra lavka saddle. Here you can make a turn and take a short climb to Furkotsky pyramidal peak (2 405 m). Let's go back to Bystra lavka saddle where the trail is secured by chains. Here we go steeply downhill to Vysne Wahleberg lake. Our tour then follows Nizne Wahlenberg lake. We still go donwhill and eventually we join a red tourist trail to Strbske lake.
