Tarzánia Hrabovo - the largest rope park in Slovakia

Hrabovská dolina is also a resort in itself and our apartments Hrabovo are located right here. We are located only 2 km from the centre of Ružomberok city, but when you come to Hrabovo, it is as if you find yourself in a completely different world. You will see a panorama of the dense green forests of the Great Fatra, and a water reservoir where someone will probably sunbathe or harden in winter. In summer, you can also go boating on the lake and try the Aquazorbing Hrabovo attraction. Of course, you can also refresh yourself here - either in our Fatrapark restaurant or in the buffet by the lake. And I guess the most popular attraction for children and adults is Tarzánia Hrabovo - the largest rope park in Slovakia. We recommend that you go through one of the available routes for really everyone. You are sure of the safety rope at all times and the instructors will train you and give you the mandatory equipment. Part of Tarzania is also Hrabovo Zipline - a 300 m long cable car that goes over Lake Hrabovo. It has a really beautiful view of the whole Hrabovo valley.

Jasná Nízke Tatry - quality skiing on Chopok hill

Jasná Nízke Tatry is the largest ski resort in Slovakia, where there are up to 49 km of ski slopes of varying difficulty. It is not only the largest, but also the most modern resort - you will find large heated cable cars, a modern snowmaking system, thanks to which skiing is possible on Jasná for many months. Lovers of adrenaline skiing and snowboarding in the freeride zone of the Jasná snow park will also enjoy themselves here. We like the views of the surrounding hills on Jasná. We recommend skiing earlier on the southern side of Chopok - this side is less developed, but there are many fewer people here, which will guarantee you a better skiing experience. You can come by car to Demänovská dolina - ie to the northern part of Chopok - but you can easily get to the south by cable car.
