Suchá Belá Gorge trek – Slovak Paradise

Suchá Belá is the most famous gorge in the Slovak Paradise. There are many walkways, ladders, chains and bridges that make this gorge accessible for a trek. Join me for a day in this fantastic destination!

We can do this trek year-round, of course in very different conditions. If you have a look at the pictures you can see the environment during the winter months. It is one of my favourite periods to traverse this gorge. If you come in the winter, you will need crampons to progress.

The beginning of the tour is in Podstsko, where we enter the gorge after a few meters. The hiking trail runs along the creek during the whole itinerary. In narrow areas, there are wooden walkways and also ladders. You will be able to enjoy the Misau Falls, Cayman Falls and Window Waterfall. During the colder months, they might be frozen! There are some very narrow passages in the itinerary.

After it rains, the creek level is higher, bluffy stretches are on the sidewalk, and the rocks can squeak, so it is necessary to get equipped with good waterproof shoes with vibram soles.

The trek will take in total 4-5 hours, and approximately half of the time we will be hiking uphill. You need to be in good physical shape to join this tour.
