Traveling to the Tatras with Kids? Yes, You Can (Without Stress!)

Traveling with little kids can be an adventure. And not always the kind from glossy brochures — more like “when will we finally sleep?” or “where are the diapers?!?”. But once you find the right place to stay, everything suddenly becomes easier. This article is here to show you how to relax in the High Tatras — even with a baby or a toddler in tow.

🏡 What Does “Baby-Friendly Accommodation” Actually Mean?

It’s not just about having a crib in the corner. Truly baby-friendly places offer:

✔️A crib, highchair, and kids’ dishes
✔️ Playground and space to play (indoors too, just in case it rains)
✔️ A kitchenette or a way to warm up baby food
✔️ Some toys and books to save the evening

And if the hosts are parents themselves, they’ll know what you need even before you ask.

📍 Why Choose Nová Lesná?

Nová Lesná is in the perfect spot:

  • Just a few minutes from Starý Smokovec (where many family-friendly trails start)
  • You can reach Smokovec and Štrbské Pleso without a car – the Nová Lesná train station is 1.3 km from the accommodation
  • Peaceful and quiet, away from tourist crowds

  • Offers stunning mountain views right from your room — because breakfast is just better when you’re staring at the peaks

🥾 Where to Go With Kids?

Even with a stroller, there’s plenty to see! Here are 3 tried-and-tested options:

  1. Hrebienok & Cold Creek Waterfalls
    – Take the funicular from Starý Smokovec
    – The path is stroller-accessible and full of forest magic
    – Check the route: Google Maps link
  2. Štrbské Pleso – Walk Around the Lake
    – A flat path, perfect for strollers and balance bikes
    – Gorgeous reflections and photo spots

  3. Nature Gallery in Tatranská Lomnica
    – An easy forest trail with wooden animal sculptures — kids love it!

🧳 What to Pack (Besides Patience)

  • An ergonomic baby carrier (when your kid refuses the stroller)
  • Their favorite plush toy – they might sleep without it at home, but not here!
  • Layers – weather in the Tatras can change in minutes
  • Snacks – because a hungry kid is never a happy kid 😉
