Štrbské Pleso Railway Station

Highlight • Rest Area

The rack railway takes you into the valley. There is also a line that runs along the mountains at the height of the town: the Poprad–Štrbské Pleso line of the Tatra Electric Railway.
In winter, the railway is often used to get to the nearby ski resorts. The price of a journey depends on the length of the journey. There are also cheap time tickets.
The rack railway was opened in 1896. 4.05 km of the total 4.75 km route was equipped with a Riggenbach rack to overcome the maximum gradient of 127 ‰. From the old valley station in Štrba at an altitude of around 896 m to the final station at the lake at an altitude of 1350 m, a height difference of 454 m had to be overcome. During the Great Depression, traffic on the rack railway was stopped in 1932.
In 1968, in connection with the 1970 Nordic World Ski Championships in Štrbské Pleso, planning began for a new construction of the track, known as Zubačka for short. The maximum gradient was increased to 150 ‰.
The track was modernized from 2020 to 2022.

In addition to the view of the ski jump, which can also be seen from other places, there is also a small hotel with a restaurant here: hotelpatria.sk/sk/koliba-patria
Personally, I also really like the climbing wooden chamois there.

Predné Solisko

Highlight • Summit

The mountain is a great option when the higher mountains are covered in cold blankets of fog and haze:
at least when we were there we were just below the clouds and benefited from the flatland weather.
For us it only came up in the afternoon at the summit.

Štrbské Pleso

Highlight • Lake

Nice, easy hike around Lake Chirmer (Štrbské pleso).
Clear water, great landscape. Tourist place. Striking Hotel Patria with the large pointed roof.
