Popradské Pleso (Poprad Lake)

Highlight • Lake

It is located in the Mengusovská dolina valley and its altitude is 1494 m a.s.l. Its area is 6.87 ha, it measures about 380 × 250 m and is up to 17.6 m deep. Brown trout are native to the lake. The only surface tributary is the Ľadový potok (German Eisbach) in the east, the only outflow is the Krupá in the south, which further downstream unites with the Hincov potok to form the Poprad river. The lake is frozen on average from around mid-November to mid-May. On the northern shore of the lake are two mountain huts, the Majláthova chata ( German Majláthhütte ) and the Chata pri Popradskom plese ( German literally hut on Poppersee ).

Wooden bridge over the stream in Mengusovská Valley

Highlight • Bridge

A nice sturdy wooden bridge for you to cross on the way to Popradske pleso. The stream hits of the stones creating small waterfalls
