After a hugely successful tri p to Slovakia with Tatra Escapes in September, we are excited to launch another trip there in June. We have teamed up with Tatra Escapes to provide another relaxed and friendly hiking holiday (with lake swimming, thermal spa, rafting and cycling thrown in) with our wonderful Abihgail's Trails community.Join us for a 4-night, 5-day adventure in Slovakia, bringing together scenic mountain hikes, wild swimming, rafting, and time to relax. This varied escape takes you through contrasting landscapes, from open mountain ridges and alpine lakes to forest trails and winding rivers.
The hiking days are at the heart of the holiday. Expect sweeping views, rewarding climbs, and the chance to pause beside a mountain lake or enjoy a welcoming mountain hut along the way. With a guide leading the group, you can settle into the experience, soak up the scenery, and share the adventure with like-minded travellers.
Between the bigger mountain days, we’ll enjoy a shorter walk with the opportunity for a refreshing wild swim, followed by a leisurely afternoon. You can visit a nearby thermal water park and spa, or simply take some time to yourself. A fun rafting experience rounds off the trip, offering a different perspective on Slovakia’s beautiful outdoors.
This holiday is graded moderate and is designed for fit, active people with good stamina and sure-footedness. The main hikes cover around 12–15 km with 650–850 metres of ascent, so you should be comfortable walking for several hours on uneven terrain, including sustained climbs and descents. There’s time to enjoy the journey and take in your surroundings, but you’ll need to be ready for proper mountain hiking.
The adventure continues beyond hiking with a fun, beginner-friendly water rafting experience in Pieniny National Park, paired with a scenic cycling section — a playful and memorable way to experience the region’s rivers and landscapes.
With a different itinerary from last year, even if you’ve joined us before, you’ll discover entirely new places and enjoy a fresh adventure.
Evenings offer time to unwind, explore, and get to know your fellow travellers. With comfortable accommodation, guided activities, and all logistics taken care of, this is a chance to enjoy an active break that combines a satisfying challenge with good company and well-earned relaxation.
With comfortable accommodation, professional guides from both Tatra Escapes and Abigail's Trails, and all logistics taken care of, this short escape is about slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and enjoying adventure in a supportive, welcoming environment.
We have limited places available as the accommodation and daily excursions are reserved exclusively for us. Unlike our usual events, booking for this is through Tatra Escapes. The link here for further details, including full itinerary is here: https://tri.ps/YOfZl
