The Western Tatras are a group of mountains in the Tatras range, lying on the border between Poland and Slovakia. Join me for 1 or several days and experience some exciting ski touring in this beautiful region!
These tours are suitable for all levels. I will take you to different spots according to your skills and experience. We will enjoy some great ski tours and descents in a wild quiet area of amazing natural beauty.
If you want to join me for several days, we can stay in a hut and ski different peaks, coulouirs and valleys nearby. There are two huts where we can stay during these ski tours: the Žiarska hut, in the southern region, and the Chatazverovka hut, in the northern side.
Please note a guide is absolutely needed in this area for a safe ski touring experience, as this is an avalanche-prone region.
Do you want to come on a ski touring adventure in this great section of the Tatras? Then send me a request and we will start plannning this trip together! I also guide freeride skiing tours around Chopok, in the Low Tatras range.

Mountain Guide
I was born in Poprad and I live, work and relax in the High Tatras. I have been climbing in this region for 15 years both in summer and winter.
Since 2001 I am a professional rescuer with a completed Bachelor education in Urgent Medical Care. Furthermore, I work in The Experts Mountain Rescue Service (in High Tatras) as an avalanche specialist.
In 2009, after passing the entrance examination for mountain guiding, I started the roundabout course. In April 2010, I became a mountain guide aspirant in the National Association of Mountain Guides of the Slovak Republic.
In 2011, during the final course in Chamonix - Mont Blanc (France) I successfully completed the course of mountain guide during four days of tests, under the strict supervision of Technical Commission NAHVSR instructors. Since then, I am a mountain guide with the IFMGA / UIAGM international license.
Thanks to this job (and hobby) I am pleased to expand the horizons of my clients and share with them my knowledge and experience as a mountain guide.

We spent 2 days with Pavol as he introduced us to ice climbing. Upon meeting him, we were pleased with his professionalism and his impressive experiences climbing around the world. It didn't take long for us to realise his expertise on the mountain, as well as his passion and down to earth attitude. Over 2 days, in 2 different locations, we got learn the basics of ice climbing on some serious ice falls. He gave us advice on techniques and strategies to get us climbing higher and more efficiently. The whole time Pavol made us feel very safe and in control, as daunting as ice climbing may be. In the end we had a great time and learnt a lot, and he left us hungry for more. He definitely showed us this is a sport and passion we can keep following. We hope to climb with Pavol again next time we visit Europe.
