Hiking

Vila Kosodrevina has a great location. Located approximately 2 min. walk from the “Lakes of love”.
Strbske Pleso is great starting point for many hiking trails. For example:

1. Strbske Pleso – Popradské pleso. Easy trek, duration approx 1:15 hr
The route is simple, little tourists can handle it easily. It ends at the Chata pri Popradskom plese (chalet). As the name implies, the chalet is located at the Popradske Pleso (tarn). Near the chalet (about 10 min.) is so-called “Symbolicky cintorin” (cemetery), which is dedicated to the victims of Tatras. A special feature is especially hand-carved wooden crosses and chapel.
From the Chata pri Popradskom plese you can further continue to Hincove plesa (tarns), to Rysy (peak), to Vysne Koprove sedlo (saddle), to Batizovske plesa (tarns), Sliezsky dom, or to the Tatra electric railway stop Popradske Pleso (approx. 45 min. asphalt road).

2. Štrbské Pleso – Mlynická Valley. In this valley is a very interesting “Waterfall Jump”, which is about 1:15 hr from Strbske Pleso. It is also possible to do round trip around Capie and Whalenbergovo Pleso (lake) and go back to Strbske Pleso (either by Solisko cable car or on foot via Furkotska Valley). Round trip is more difficult and it is for more experienced hikers.

3. Strbske Pleso – Jamske lake – Krivan. Walk to the Jamska lake is not difficult, but Krivan is suitable for more experienced hikers.

Walks

Strbske Pleso offers besides hiking a pleasant walk around the Strbske Pleso (lake). There is an „oxygen route“ at the lake with the opportunity to exercise during the walks.
