Stary Smokovec, Slovakia Walking Tour ☀️ (4K Ultra HD) – With Captions

The capital of winter recreation and the oldest recreational settlement in the Tatras, known for its picturesque mountain scenery and architecture. Starý Smokovec, founded in 1793, is one of the main Tatra settlements that make up the town of Vysoké Tatry, located in the central part of the region, making it an excellent base for hiking trips. Situated at the foot of the High Tatras in Slovakia at an elevation of 1010 meters above sea level, it boasts a population of only 89 people. The settlement is dominated by peaks such as Slavkovský štít, which stands at 2453 meters above sea level and is one of the possible hiking destinations from this location.

This mountain village can truly enchant tourists with its somewhat old-fashioned character, numerous villa-style buildings, and green areas amidst the mountain scenery. One of the most recognizable buildings in the settlement is the Grand Hotel Starý Smokovec, built in 1904. Besides the stunning views, the town is also home to a mineral water spring. As early as the 19th century, a forester's lodge and a hunting cabin were built around the spring.

We begin our walking tour at the lower station of the Hrebienok funicular (Údolná stanica Hrebienok), then walk through the center of the village and continue to Nový Smokovec, where we will conclude our walk in a small park.

🙂👋 Cześć, film ok. Ale miejscowość jakoś nie powala, mam poczucie, że jakos tam mało klimatycznie, a nawet zabudowa "od Sasa do lasa" bez pomysłu 😅, no a już pomnik wichury, to jakiś żart.
Może zimą budzi się do życia, ale latem pewnie można tam się zanudzić ;))))
