More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the air-conditioned vehicle into a cool highland wind; the spruce crowns ahead seem to lean and dare you forward. The Bachledka treetop walk rises gently along a 600‑metre elevated path, the boardwalk lifting you 24 metres above the forest floor before a 30‑metre observation tower expands the view to the High Tatras.
