Facts

The Jasná Nízke Tatry (Jasná Low Tatras) resort is located in the mountain range of the Low Tatras, which stretches across the heart of Slovakia. The second highest peak and also one of the most visited places in the Low Tatras is Mt. Chopok, the north and south side of which is interconnected with cableways.

Jasná Nízke Tatry is currently the biggest ski resort in Slovakia. Skiers have an option to try all types of trails from blue to black, suitable for beginners, families with children, as well as for advanced skiers. The modern snowmaking system with 527 snow points covers 34 km of trails and provides snow guarantee for at least five months a year. Fans of wild rides can enjoy 12 free ride zones, a great snow park, and Fun Zone. You get to the top of Mt. Chopok by ultra-modern cableways – the 24-person Funitel or 15-person gondolas. At night you can enjoy night skiing on a 990- meters long lit up trail in Jasná. There are 2830 cableways and lifts at Mt. Chopok with the transportation capacity of more than 32,000 persons per hour. The winter season typically lasts from the beginning of December to the end of April.

In the resort of Jasná Nízke Tatry TMR also operates several dining facilities. Happy End Disco&Restaurant is well known by its great disco parties and live concerts at night. Furthermore, one can try Bernardino burger restaurant beneath Mt. Chopok, the stylish Restaurant Von Roll Luková, Snack Bar Rovná Hoľa, a panoramic restaurant Rotunda at 2,004 m above seal level with a large sundeck and multiple après-ski bars at the start cableway stations. The highest located ski in-ski out Hotel Rotunda on the top of Mt. Chopok also serves as a boarding and disembarking station of cable cars that connect the southern and northern slope of the second highest peak of the Low Tatras.

In addition to the dining facilities we also offer our visitors multiple sport services – individual or group lessons with licensed instructors at the ski school and kindergarden Maxiland. The stores offering sports wear and accessories and sports equipment rentals are run under the Tatry Motion brand. The modern ski service offers ski and snowboard service with a technologically perfect machine on the spot. Thanks to the all-year cableway operation the Jasná resort offers also in the summer a wide spectrum of sports activities – rides on mountain carts, scooters, or in the bike park on both sides of Mt. Chopok, Nordic walking, a bungee trampoline, or lake boat rides. On the north and south side of Mt. Chopok there is a family outdoor game prepared with new tasks and attractions of the Dragon Demian at Drakopark Chopok.

Chopok north

The resort lies on 82 ha, the total length of snowmaking coverage is 24 km produced by 370 snow guns. In the 2012/13 winter season we launched two new cableways. Funitel, the 14th cableway of its kind in the world is hung on two ropes to withstand stronger wind better, and Twinliner that connects Chopok North and Chopok South. In the winter season 2013/14 a new six-seat cableway was added at Lúčky with the capacity of 2,460 persons per hour. It resulted in two new entry points to the resort.

Chopok south

The length of ski trails covered by snowmaking on the Chopok South is almost 10 km produced by 149 snow points. Given the usual high level of natural snow there is only minimum need for snowmaking. The ski area concentrates on free riders and those who prefer quieter slope. As part of the project of interconnecting both sides of Mt. Chopok, a new 15-person gondola, Kosodrevina – Chopok, was added in the winter season 2012/13, and a 15-person gondola at Krupová – Kosodrevina in the 2016/17 season.
