View of Zelené Pleso (Green Lake)

Highlight • Viewpoint

The wonderful route leading through the Kieżmarska valley is complemented by a breathtaking view of the Green Pond and the surrounding peaks with the Kieżmarski Peak at the forefront. I recommend as (in my opinion) a much better, less crowded alternative to Morskie Oko with a more interesting route.

Hut at Green Lake (Brnčalka)

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Chata pri Zelenom plese (German Grünseehütte) is located on the northern shore of the mountain lake Zelené pleso and is a very popular hiking destination.
Super crowded when the weather is good.

At the beautiful Grünsee you can stop at the …

The Grünseehütte was on my wish list for my stay in the Tatra Mountains. It was my first hut in the high mountains 35 years ago. And I remember the photo from inside through the open window of the beautiful lake in front of it.
