Nature is recovering slowly but surely. Lower temperatures will hopefully bring natural snow to mountain resorts too and enable them to open ski slopes at higher altitudes. The resort of Štrbské Pleso is about to open a new blue-marked slope called Turistická for less experienced skiers on Tuesday, 14th January. Two red slopes designated for more demanding skiers – Solisko and Furkota should follow according to weather conditions. The operator hopes this might happen next weekend already. On the southern side of Mt. Chopok, man-made snow is being added onto open slopes of Slnečná, Tréningová, Hotelová and Krúpová and traverse connections: Kosodrevina – Srdiečko – Krupová and Predné Dereše – Kosodrevina. A more difficult track called Zjazdárska is being prepared as well. The staff on the northern side of Mt. Chopok are improving all open slopes and snow lances are producing snow on the slope of Luková. There are 22 slopes open on both sides of Mt. Chopok, snow conditions are very good or good, snow cover on slopes is up to 40 cm thick. For more information please visit: http://www.jasna.sk/lanovky-a-zjazdovky/. The High Tatras offer 11 open slopes in total with up to 40 cm of snow and very good snow conditions. For latest news on open slopes please visit: http://www.vt.sk/lanovky-a-zjazdovky/.
