Waterfall Skok (Vysoké Tatry)

The Skok waterfall (1,730 meters above sea level) on the Mlynický brook is with its 25 meters the third largest waterfall of the Slovak side of the High Tatras.

The hike to the waterfall Skok is very pleasant and undemanding with an elevation of less than 400 meters.

The reason for the High Tatras’s popularity is the picturesque peaks, cold caves, waterfalls and beautiful valleys - simply a paradise. Meadows, slopes, forests, mountains, mountain lakes and waterfalls are a must-see places. All this is offered by the national nature reserve Kôprová Valley.

How to get there: from the mountain lake Štrbské pleso follow the yellow tourist mark to the crossroads with Tatranská Magistrála hiking trail, then turn left and continue for about ten minutes among the scattered hotels of the sports center Areál snov. The trail continues through the forest of the valley Mlynická dolina which then changes into shrubbery with Tatra pines. In front of us further in the valley is the Štrbský Peak. Towards the end of our hike we arrive at the waterfall Skok. When the snow melts, the water falls from the high rocky sill to the lower level of the valley.
