| Climate |
The climate is mostly mountainous and alpine, thus cold and moist, and is heavily influenced by mountainous terrain. Snow covers the mountain from 180 (in valleys) to 250 (in most areas) days of the year. Here and there and in particular on the northern shady slopes and gutters are under the snow all year round. At the upper layer the snow cover reaches 100-150 cm and the rugged landscape causes frequent landslides.
Rainfalls occur due to prevailing westerly winds on the western and northern slopes. Windy weather is typical for the Tatras (up to 300 days per year). On the south side there are often „falling winds“ that cause refutings and broad fields. Tourists have to count with its sudden changes, especially when the output transitions to peaks or valleys are long, usually lasting 8-10 hours. The average annual temperature is about 5 °C, 15 °C in July. The best time for hiking is in the autumn when the weather is stable due to lower temperatures and there is also an excellent visibility at that time. |
