Spring in the High Tatras brings waking nature, when the valleys get rid of snow and the highest peaks remain white. The sun warms more intensely, the air is fresh, and the mornings become cold. Since the hiking trails are often closed in this period for nature conservation or are underwhelmed, it is a good time to walk on forest trails around the settlement Novy Smokovec. Pack waterproof footwear and layered clothing for these wanderings, as the weather changes quickly. The season offers peace and quiet, while the appropriate time for a walk is morning until the mountain sky reaches the afternoon cloud.

The surrounding countryside is green and the forests smell of needles. The disadvantage of the main tourist season is crowds of visitors, so it is necessary to hit the roads early in the morning, ideally with the first tram connections to avoid the rush of tourists. Wear light, airy clothing, don't forget sunglasses, head cover, and sunscreen, as the sun's rays are strong in high positions. Attention should be paid to the frequent afternoon storms, which are typical for the summer Tatras, so it is advisable to stop hiking before lunch.

In the autumn you will appreciate a warm windproof jacket, cap and gloves, especially if you stay outside until later afternoon, when temperatures fall. You will meet tourists at least. A good time to photograph and wander is around noon when the autumn sun warms and penetrates through the trees.
