Topic Trekking in Low Tatras in April2012 Hello, I am planning to trek from Telgart to Donovaly along the main ridge in the beginning of April. 1) Would I be able to trek through the main ridge in 5 days given the late winter conditions? 2) How difficult will the terrain be at that time? I will bring my ice axe and crampons. 3) Will the risk of avalanche be relatively low since it is at the end of ski season? 4) What is the temperature range around that time? 5) Will there be other hikers doing this route at that time of the year? I hope to meet and join up with someone there. 5) I hope to stay at the Andrejcova, Ramza, and Durkova shelters, as well as the Chata M.R. Stefanika chalet. Will those be open at the time? Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you. 25/01/12 created by beewoo number of reactions 3 last 26/01/12

Topic camping with my tent Hello! I’m Andreea from Romania and I plan to hike in Tatras with a friend(in July). We want to walk, admire everything, relax and forget society “rules”. I firstly thought I can just go there and camp in woods(of course without making fire), being used to do that in Romanian mountains; but it seems is forbidden? Can please someone help me with this concern? Is it or isn’t it possible to camp in wildness? Thank you very much! 09/06/11 created by Andreea number of reactions 4 last 10/06/11

Topic Topic CarpathianEXPLORER expedition 2010 BIG RESPECT. I definitelly support your journey and trully exiting opportunity to come closer to (speaking on behalf of slovakians) recognise the natural and cultural beauty of Slovakians part of CARPATHIAN MOUNTAINS. I live near to LOW C.M. north of capital and hiked it all across in diameter of 100km -it"s very sceneric if you are patient to explore. In my opinion this part is a bit underestimated comparing to that part you will enter according your plan map. I say Yes for this project. Good luck people. 28/10/09 created by MarekParajka number of reactions 2 last 02/12/09

Topic CarpathianEXPLORER expedition 2010 In the spring of 2010 a team from CarpathianEXPLORER will be setting out to walk the length of the Carpathian Mountains. The aim of the journey is to document and record whether or not the "Via Carpati" network of hiking trails, as promised by the seven governments involved, does in fact exist. We are also involved in developing a website and putting together a number of educational packages for schools. The school presentations and the website are both intended to help raise peoples awareness and understanding of the Carpathian region as a whole. We would like to encourage anyone who would like to find out more and possibly get involved to look at our current website (www.carpathianexplorer.com) and send us an email. 25/10/09 created by Sebastian kosmala number of reactions 0 last 25/10/09
