... and much higher than the Polish part.

There is a special railway designed to bring the mountaineers to virtually any place they want, and its network connects all the High Tatra towns like Tatranska Lomnica, Smokovce or Strbske Pleso. What's more, there are a few cable cars that take you directly into the heart of Tatry without any effort, and amongst these places are peaks and passes like Lomnicky ...

... sme zopar tyciniek. Chceme ist do potravin, no mame smolu, je zatvorene.

Obchadzame Hnilecke vrchy smerom na Sykavku, kadial oficialne pokracuje cervena Hnilecka cyklomagistrala. Za Hnilcom sa vsak cesta meni z asflatovej na lesnu. Ideme lesom a lukami tesne popri zeleznici a potoku. KRASNE ! Vona ihlicnateho lesa nas sprevadza aj tu ... a v lese je prijemne vlhko, zeby tu prsalo ? Je aj dost mokro, co si hned obidvaja odskusame padom do blata :)

... like cycling, like I do. Riding down at a dizzy speed is really pleasant and fun, but then coming back is a pain.

What to see when you're in Bukowina? Take your trekking shoes and something warm to wear and go to feel the mountains. I especially recommend Dolina Pięciu Stawów Polskich, with the biggest waterfall in Poland - Siklawa (about 3.5h hours way up and 2.5h way down). There is a small mountain hostel in the ...

Nas prvy den na dovolenke okolo Slovenska. Vcera vecer sme vyrazili z Blavy smerom ku Tatram, pretoze nasa prva zastavka je pod Belianskymi Tatrami v Zdiari. Cestou sem sme uplne zazracne stretli na pumpe vo Svite Fera Kysela, ktory nam porozpraval o svojej dovolenke na Balkane. Ferove dovolenky teda nie su nikdy nuda a na jeho pribehoch sme sa ...

Been in Slovakia for a week to attend a wedding. Spent a few days lazing about drinking heavy spirits for breakfast...ahh, bechorovka, fernet and slivovica...b************* out of cornflakes. The wedding was good craic, fairly different to Ireland, the thing took place in a town hall with the lord mayor reading a poem and witnesse's signing the paperwork...the cameraman knocked over a ...

... 1991 the town has constituted to a self-administration area unit, on the basis of the Act Nm. 369/1990 Code. Contrary to the totalitarian regime, the towns have become absolutely self-governing, administered by their elected authorities, which are not dependent on state or non-state authorities. Currently, the political scene of the Poprad Town has been active, based on the principles of plurality and democracy, which have their historical roots in this region. Since the 14th ...

The bus we hoped existed did exist and took us from Zakopane, Poland, through spectacular mountain scenery over what was not really a long distance into Slovakia. We found another bus to take us to Levoca - a gem of a little town where we have the swankiest FOUR=STAR hotel at a steal of a rate. Huge room, all facilities, posh restaurant, great bathroom and a great view over the central 14-16th century ...

... some cheap clothes (Yay good exchange rate for once!!), and then headed to Angela for dinner. This time it was dessert that was slovak. Crepes with fresh fruit and slovak chocolate with real whipped cream. Wow. I can't beleive how good the food is. and in slovakia, I think that the food is a major part of the culture, so I loved to try it all. After such a long and active day, we decided it best to just grab a movie and head to bed. Sunday we went to church for Palm sunday, and it was ...

... the electric railcar to the High Tatras resort of Stary Smokoviec. A hyper-touristy chalet town straight out of a storybook, except for the signs advertising pizza and sports gear. The tourist info girl kindly handed me a trail map. I have since heard these described as 'abstract art', and am forced to agree. There is nothing of coherence on it, and it has the added bonus of completely leaving off the green trails - which happen to be the ones you need for ...

... more precisely, we went upstream). There were many rocks and shabby ladders that had to be climbed. Still, it was a fantastic experience. At a certain moment we took the Horny Diary trail (I am not sure if my spelling is correct). We found no crowds there, just a few tourists. We were to find the reason soon. After the Horny Diary trail we were on 1000 m height; we started at 500 m. Here the woods started to become scarcer and the views became better ...
