Pension Montana (AA) - 2 nights (D)
Terchova
Today you take an adventure walk to the Janosikove Diery Canyons, you depart directly from the hotel. The canyons consist of various waterfalls and gorges which are accessible by wooden footbridges and iron ladders, sometimes there are chains that will help you manage the trickier sections. Along the way educational boards provide information about the area's fauna and flora. The walk is relatively easy and the views, plus moutain steams and waterfalls make it great fun too. You will walk through the canyons all the way to the mountain village of Stefanova with its impressive wooden houses and many farm gardens. A packed lunch will be taken enroute to give you a chance to rest and enjoy the views around you. Mid afternoon you transfer from Stefanova by minibus back to Terchova. Later you make a local farm visit and have the chance to milk a cow and see how cheese is made. (BL)
Tatranska Lomnica
Collect the cheese that you made yesterday this morning - what an achievement! Then you take a transfer (20 mins) to Orava river for a traditional style rafting experience along the river (approx 2 hours) the grade is easy (1-2) so suitable for all the family to relax and watch the world float by. Then you stop at a traditional restaurant for lunchtime (not included).
After lunch you take a step back in time as you visit the mountain village of Vloklinec, the name translates to something like Wolf's Place. This small village is a living open air museum with excellent examples of the old rustical architecture. There are two rows of houses with long court yards which remain undisturbed by new development. The houses do not have tap water and take their water from a well in the middle of the village which is housed in a wooden shed. Chickens and other farm animals roam free and there is a sense of peace and tranquillity here. Some houses here are used now as weekend houses, but some are still settled by indigenous people - in 1993 there were 30 people living in the village, including two children. One house is arranged as a village life museum and an information center. Sadly about a third of the houses are now in ruins or were burned down during the national uprising in the Second World War. The village is a unesco Heritage site.
After your visit a further drive (1 hour) takes you to your next accommodation in the town of Tatranska Lomnica, your gateway to exploring the High Tatras.
Hotel Slovakia (AA) - 4 nights (B)
Tatranska Lomnica

The cave it lit and you will explore by walkways to see various chambers which are filled with ice year round - the air temperature in the Great Hall is from -3,8 to + 0,5 C. The ice is constantly melting and refreezing so no two visits here are ever the same.

Continue to the medieval walled town of Levoca (20 min drive), the town became important due to its location on the main trade route between Poland and Hungary.
