Tri Studničky

Tri Studničky are three natural springs emerging from the ground at approximately 1140 meters elevation within the High Tatras mountain range. They mark the starting point for several hiking routes that branch out across the national park from this central location.

The springs have served as a water source for visitors and local inhabitants since tourism began developing in the High Tatras during the 1800s. Their importance as a starting point for mountain exploration grew alongside the establishment of the hiking trail network in the region.

The name Tri Studničky means Three Springs in Slovak, referring to the natural formation that serves as a meeting point where different mountain paths converge. Locals and visitors have long used this place as a natural landmark to gather before heading into the surrounding trails.

Parking spaces near the springs provide direct access to marked trails that lead to various destinations within the park. The site is well signposted and the paths are well maintained, making it easy for visitors to plan their routes.

The water from these springs maintains a constant temperature throughout the year, creating a special habitat for certain plant species adapted to these conditions. This microclimate allows rare species to thrive at this elevation where harsh conditions normally prevail.
