The guy you filmed hiking with a beer keg at 5:38 is a mountain carrier (horský nosič). They supply the mountain cottages with food, water and beer and people pay them the utmost RESPECT. Not many people are willing to hike a mountain with up to 40kg of supplies on their back all day XD. Im glad you liked the Tatras.
After the hut you hiked down the yellow route which doesn't go to where you started and it isn't very nice to walk on as it's the supply road for the hut. The better option is to get off the yellow route about halfway down. There is a sign on a pole that shows you where to do this. You hike 10 minutes on the green route, then turn left onto the red route which is nice and pretty. That takes you to where you get off the first cable car. You can then hike down the road for a mile to where to the cable cars start, or there are some gravity go-karts you can ride down for 10 euro (definitely worth it).
A nicely done video:) Not far from where I grew up. The downhill from the hut is really long and annoying. I once had to run it in the dusk to catch the last bus and fell on those freaking rocks. But I made it, haha.
What was said about the weather forecast at 10:05 is very true and a good tip for any central/eastern European destination. Never trust the weather forecast, especially if it predicts rain and grey clouds and lightning etc. I’ve nearly always found them to be very pessimistic outlooks. More often than not the weather is fine for most of the day with maybe an hour of bad weather. Even forecasts of the next or same day can be very wrong.
Awesome video. I live near the Canadian rockies and you could have told me that you were here based on the footage. The only difference is that it's colder here right now.
haha Ya. Although we would normally be the sorry souls who chose to hike 3 more hours to save money, the chair lift and cable car were too good to pass up on this day!
That ski lift is so worth it! The first part of the trail is very boring. Taking that ski lift will also save you a lot of time and energy for the rest of the hike, which can be challenging at times. I had no regrets taking that ski lift on my way back, too 😅
I also prefer to take the ski lift to going on. There are no ski lifts back from The Geen Lake hut (Hata pri Zelenom plese). I have been in High Tatras about 3 weeks, totally. Has gone the same route- it is very beautiful. Want to go back again.
hello, first of all the video is magnificent, it inspires me for my next trip and quick question, what is the name of the music used in 8:05 ? Thank you
She looks from Polish heritage and he Portuguese or Brazilian? Im looking to hike there! Any danger of a bear or wolf attack?? Whats the weather like in early October?
My fiancé and I are taking our Honeymoon to Slovakia and Hungary for 12 days this August so not too far away! We want to go hiking in the Tatras for at least 2 days, it looks beautiful. Do you know of any backpacking trails or the rules on camping in the national park?
I am not sure about the rules for camping but you can sleep in the chalet if you book a spot! I think there may be more chalets in the mountains you can hike to. Most people hike the Poland side of the Tatras. There may be more options there. Congrats and have so much fun on your honeymoon! 🍾🎉
No wild camping is allowed or recommended, unless you feel comfortable with bears, wolfs and wildcats. You have several designated campsites, some free and others still cheap with good conditions. If hiking is the goal, I would recommend a place called "ATC Tatranská Štrba", in the middle of the park and with many surrounding trails. Ps- don't take the cable car... The point of hiking, should be to hike.
@@cavitecheckpoint Above all, we're talking about a national park here with general protection of nature so it's simply forbidden to do it. Some reasons: The water from tarns are source of a drinkable water(for both people and animals), in some fish live and other animals, they are still unpolluted(with a few exceptions close to chalets which kind of highlight the purpose why to keep them protected), esthetic issue - seeing tons of people in the pristine nature swimming and sunbathing is not what the majority go to these places for. I personally agree if one or two people would bathe there(without soap etc.) nothing would be wrong with it, but people are people and as with everything else, the rule is there because of people who behave irresponsibly. If one could, then many more would.
You are lucky with the drone footage, for it is mostly forbiden , requires a special permit. You guys did great, could also look up Western Tatras, if you are interested.
Ya.. we looked for signs on the way up and didn't see anything. Then started seeing signs on the way out 😅. We loved the area and would definitely check out a different part of the mountains. Thanks for watching!
I really like what u 2 have done bc it is indeed such a great place to visit and also 99% of Americans don't even know where Slovakia is so well done!...tip..don't take cable car just walk it up..I'm former ice hockey player and the journey u did I use to run like twice a week for my condition and it cost me zero..lol
This is not a hiker. All chalets ,where it is not possible to deliver goods by cars, are stocked by mountain carriers. The weight of the material is usually about 100 kg .

Tie náklady nosičov, sú bežne 2x tak ťažké ako uvádzaš.
Breathtaking views!!
This was one of the most fun hikes we have even been on!
Slovakia my ❤
I grew up in town close to those. Mountains and I am jealous watching this
I am glad that you liked my country 🙂 and that you had a nice weather to fully enjoy High Tatras 👍
Amazing nature!
Loved the video ❤️. Beautiful place❤️🙏. Additionally liked the comment from John T👍😂
Such a beautiful place! ❤
Love❤my country!

Great place, I was there during the winter.

How amazing it must have been to look at those mountains every day growing up. 😃 Those rocks were the worst! Thanks for watching!

The weather was fantastic but this was filmed in August. We will make it to the Canadian rockies some day! Thanks for watching 😀
The countries speak English
Definalty would of taking the ski lift !!! That's a hike !! The views are so pretty.

Guys 2:08 background looked great, mountains.
hello, first of all the video is magnificent, it inspires me for my next trip
and quick question, what is the name of the music used in 8:05 ?
Thank you
Is it best to go there in June? Considered because of weather.
She looks from Polish heritage and he Portuguese or Brazilian?
Im looking to hike there! Any danger of a bear or wolf attack??
Whats the weather like in early October?
The chain is not broken:) You just hold it! It is not stairs

@@SOSASATSUNRISEPoland 40 million citizens Slovakia 5 million. Therefore, on the Polish side, more tourists in Slovakia is more beautiful
I remember this heatwave it was like 40 degrees here in Poland
Easy question..the hike around the crater lakes in Sete Cidades, Sao Miguel. I've been there. It's stunning!
What are all the containers for????
Can you swim in the lake?
no!
@@MiSHeQ may i ask why?

Camera gopro??
Check out our kit in the description that has all our gear. On this hike we used our two Sony cameras. Thanks for watching!
Imagine working in that bar/tavern and going there to work every day. Maybe you could go by car ?
Possibly an ATV. The trail we took to get out was horrible to hike but could be accomplished by vehicle. Most likely how they get supplies as well.
Good job guys I'll be in Czech next month
Mountains with reasonable size
at 5:38, that´s a barrel of beer on the back of a hiker? sheesh!
This is not a hiker. All chalets ,where it is not possible to deliver goods by cars, are stocked by mountain carriers. The weight of the material is usually about 100 kg .
...which also explains the price which we jokingly call "high altitude surcharge" :)
Empty keg of beer or Kofola :) Nice workout if your knees can withstand such weight.
