Facts about the hike:
Total Hiking time: 6-8 Hours
Difficulty level: Medium
Trail mark colours: Yellow, Red, Blue

Mlynicka Dolina is one of the most beautiful valleys in the western part of High Tatras. The hike starts on the north end of the Hotel FIS complex (behind the swimming pool). Follow the yellow marked trail which rises by the terraces of Mlynicka Dolina valley. After walking for 90 minutes, the Skok waterfall and the lake over Skok appear. After a further 120 minutes the end of the valley is reached, the Strbsky Stit dominating the landscape. The Bystre-sedlo pass at 2,314m is the highest point on this hike. After crossing the pass the Furkotska valley is entered and from here descends continually passing the Wahlenberg lake to the junction on the red marked trail which brings the hiker back to Strbske pleso. This takes about 150 minutes. Less enthusiastic hikers can leave by the yellow marked trail located in the middle of the valley and, by turning left to the blue trail , can reach the Solisko chalet in 20 minutes. From this point it is possible to take a chair-lift down to Strbske pleso. However, for those who prefer a challenge, 45 minutes over the Solisko chalet there is a Predne Solisko peak (2,093). The trails are open from the 15 Juny until 31st October. The initial section from Hotel FIS to the waterfall is open all year round.
