Flanked by the Tatra Mountains and set by a namesake lake, Štrbské Pleso is a resort village where the Solisko Express Chairlift takes visitors to an array of downhill ski runs in wintertime. In summer, outdoor adventurers follow hiking trails and ascend the Tatras Tower for sweeping valley views. Visitors stay in simple hotels or upscale wellness resorts with luxury spas, and dine out at casual restaurants.
