RAINER CHALET - A BRIEF HISTORY

In the middle of 60-ties in the last century a simple shelter arose on the Starolesnianska meadow at the begining of the Veľká Studená valley, which was the first touristic facility built in the Slovak territory of the High Tatras.
"Chalet" was built by a hotelier Ján Juraj Reiner (1800 - 1872) from Smokovec and its purpose was to make it easier for tourists to stay in the highmountain area (for hikes to the cold valleys - Malá and Velká, or the climb to Lomnicky peak) in case of the bad weather. It was possible to oversleep there up to 1884, when a new tourist hotel arose next to the chalet. After opening of the hotel Rainer Chalet became a store.
In 1983 this historical monument was restored and today it is the rest spot for tourists. Thanks to its new renter it became an info centre and a sherpa minimuseum in Velka and Mala Studena valleys.
