The most important tourist path of the Tatra is the path called ”Tatranska Magistrala”. Thanks to this path it’s possible to know and to admire numerous valleys of the High Tatras.
Map of Tatranska magistrala
All hiking trails are marked by red, blue, green or yellow signs. The High Tatra's marked trails, ranging over nearly 600 km, lead to most significant points.
The trails are of 3 types:
short walks (very easy)
hikes through valley
higher-altitude tours:
passes to cols and ascent to summits (the most difficult)
These are differentiated by terrain, requiring various degrees of ability and appropriate equipment.
