Undoubtedly one of Slovakia s most popular mountain resort areas, with most of the area lying within the confines of the 810 sq. Low Tatras National Park. The best known and developed ski resort is Demanovska dolina or Demanovska Valley, located near the town of Liptovsky Mikulas, which is the base for visiting the Low Tatras. The valley and the national park begin near the village of Pavcina Lehota, about 6 km from the center of Liptovsky Mikulas. From there you can travel up into the mountains for another 10 km and seek out a room in the Jasna region, which encompasses a collection of hotels and chalets.
Winter is the most popular season, and room prices and availability prove that.
While there are a number of hotels in the area, the chances of getting a room in winter without prior reservations can be nearly nil. The ski season usually lasts until April. Getting to the Low Tatras is also accessible by train and bus if you don t have a car. Poprad, the nearest city of any size, is about an hour away from Liptovsky Mikulas by train. They are part of the 795 sq.
