Winter skiing

Small local ski lifts in nearby villages, bigger slopes at Kohútka in the Javorníky — and ridge trails groomed for cross-country skiing.

Winter in Wallachia can be a fairy tale. Closest by are the small local ski lifts in nearby villages, ideal for children and beginners. For bigger skiing, head to Kohútka — a resort right on the Javorníky ridge with views over both sides of the border.

Cross-country skiers have dozens of kilometres of trails around: when the snow falls, tracks are groomed along the Javorníky ridges and on the meadows above the valley. And after a day in the snow, nothing beats coming home to a warm apartment.
