Skalnaté Pleso
Skalnaté pleso
A cable car transfer station and mountain lake at 1,751 m, with an observatory nearby, where the Lomnický štít cable car meets the classic Tatra trails.
Skalnaté Pleso lies beneath Lomnický štít. A gondola reaches it from Tatranská Lomnica in about 15 minutes, and it is also the transfer point for going up Lomnický štít. By the lake stand the Skalnaté Pleso Observatory and a mountain hut, and in winter it is the starting point for ski runs. In summer you can follow the Tatra Magistrala trail down to Hrebienok (about 2 hours, with the Studená dolina waterfall along the way), or take a chairlift up to the Lomnické sedlo saddle (2,190 m) for views. Single-leg cable car tickets can be purchased.
