Mémorial Psotka

Štrbské Pleso invites you to a legendary and exceptionally demanding race that has for years commemorated the renowned Slovak Himalayan climber Jozef Psotka. It’s a true mountain trail celebration, where the harsh climate of the High Tatras and the rugged, highly technical climbs will push your fitness to the ultimate test🏃. The toughest will tackle the ruthless Extreme course of about 38 km with a massive elevation gain, and for those seeking stronger thrills on a slightly shorter distance, the Basic variant of about 26 km has been prepared.

Wondering what to do when, at last, you safely descend from the Tatrian trails?🤔

After such an extreme effort, treat yourself to a big, indulgent portion of fried Slovak cheese with fries and tartar sauce😋. Once the calories are burned off on the reassembled ridges, take the family for a relaxed stroll around the famous glacial lake in the heart of Štrbské Pleso to admire the mountains majestically reflecting on the water’s surface. For couples, a great option will be a short excursion toward Tatranská Lomnica, a little under forty minutes by road, from where you can ride an exceptional cable car up to the impressive summit of Lomnický štít🚠. If, however, your legs—sore from the descents—refuse to obey, simply head to the popular Poprad Water Park, half an hour away, where soothing hot thermal pools will wonderfully crown this incredible success!🎉
