Description

The north-west part of the Branisko mountain range is filled with Smrekovica, which is the highest peak of this mountain range. It rises above the villages of Vyšný Slavkov and Poľanovce. Smrekovica is a grateful tourist destination in any season.

The hike to the very top is very interesting and varied, but the imaginary cherry on the cake are just the views that will come from the top. You will have Spiš, Šariš, Levoča Hills and even Tatras during good visibility lie open.

The grassy-rocky surface of the peak offers ample space for a larger group of tourists. In addition, there is a cross, benches, fireplace and shelter where you can hide from the unpredictable weather.

The exit route leads through mostly dense forests and steep slopes, but in general, it is not very demanding, so everyone should handle it. Popular starting points include the Branisko ghaut (about 5 km), Vyšný Slavkov (about 5 km) and Šindliar (about 7 km).
