Stay: Vysoke Tatry Slovakia - free parking area at ski lift, great views N49.1673 E20.2712
We took off early this morning to avoid traffic jams and road closures and had an easy drive into Slovakia to Vysoke Tatry.
At 9am there was still plenty of spots but it filled up during the day as people went off hiking and taking the cable car.
It is possible to go up to Lomnicky Stit at 2634m it is the second highest peak in the Tatra mountains. Unfortunately it was booked out until Monday! We could have taken the cable car to lower levels but the clouds where gathering and we decided to give it a miss. We walked instead down through the town which had a very nice relaxed holiday atmosphere, much better than yesterday’s town.
We got back to Bluey just in time before the rain starting pouring down, later followed by a thunder storm. We had a cooked lunch and did some planning for our next part of the trip. When the sun came out again we stretched our legs with another walk.
Hi Mireille & Mark, It looks like lovely countryside where you are now so hope you find your chill out spot there soon...we know exactly what you mean about dealing with crowds, it can be very stressful especially when you're in need of a break.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Cheers, Jan & Mike.
Thanks! We have managed a few chill out days but there is always so much to see that we can’t help but move on and enjoy all the sites! Hope all is well. Cheers
