The Treetop Walk
The Treetop Walk
The Bachledka Treetop Walk is located on the ridge of the Spišská Magura, on the border of the Pieniny and Tatra National Parks. With a gentle ascent, it safely guides you from the ground up to a height of 24 metres, directly into the treetops. We will show you what makes the local nature unique. You will become part of forest life and discover many species of animals and plants that can be found only in a few places. The route, more than 1,234 metres long, leads you through a species-rich forest where various surprises and educational features await. You will be captivated by the breathtaking views of the Belianske Tatras, the Pieniny Mountains and the picturesque Zamagurie region from the panoramic platform of the 32-metre-high tower that marks the end of the Walk.
A trip to the treetops is great fun for children, teenagers and adults alike. The new gondola lift comfortably takes you to the Treetop Walk, making it a barrier-free attraction. If the Treetop Walk is physically demanding for you for health reasons, you can borrow a wheelchair free of charge at the entrance and enjoy the ride through the treetops. The Treetop Walk is open all year round. However, annual maintenance takes place in spring and autumn, so we recommend checking the opening hours in advance.

Attractions on the Treetop Walk
Adrenaline Zones
During your walk along the Treetop Walk, you can stop at three adrenaline zones. Not only children can test their balance here on special sections with transparent elements that reveal a seemingly dangerous drop beneath your feet.
All attractions are, of course, fully secured to ensure maximum safety.
Educational Stops
Along the Walk, you will find educational stops introducing you to the local fauna and flora. The presentation is playful and engaging, and includes illustrations designed especially for younger visitors.
Dry Slide
A 67-metre-long dry slide winds around the observation tower, allowing you to shorten your way down while enjoying an extra dose of adrenaline.
Walkable Net
In the centre of the panoramic terrace of the observation tower, there is a walkable net. Looking down from a height of 32 metres is an experience reserved for the more adventurous.
The net has a high load capacity, and walking across it is safe even for heavier visitors.
Viewing Telescope
At the very top of the observation tower, there is a viewing telescope that allows you to discover not only the names of the surrounding mountain peaks, but also their altitude above sea level.
Children’s Playgrounds
For young visitors, two natural playgrounds are prepared in front of the entrance to the Treetop Walk, inviting them to have fun and play.
The playgrounds include elements featuring the Gorgy mascot, a play set, slides and swings.
