We wanted to visit the High Tatras from the UK and do some hill walking & trekking. Specifically, we planned to hike Gerlachovsky stit (2655m) and Mt Rysy (2503m). We needed a guide and turned to Mountain ProGuiding. This proved an excellent choice. Our point of contact, by email and phone, was Katarina, who was efficient, courteous and professional throughout. She teamed us up with Peter for Gerlachovsky stit, and with Tibor for Mt Rysy. Both were excellent guides, with a great knowledge of the mountains. They set a pace that suited, read the weather excellently, kept us safe throughout, and got us to the top of both peaks (and down again) without drama. We really enjoyed both climbs which were very satisfying, and we owe a big thank you to Mountain ProGuiding for making it all happen.

In the highest point of Štiavnické vrchy with an excellent orbital outlook to all cardinal points. For its imposing location it creates a significant land dominating point. Changing of the Panonian and Carpathian flora is characteristic for this region. There are several protected plant and animal species here. The peak itself was inhabited already in prehistoric ages. During archeological works a huge Lužice stronghold was dicovered here. The medieval castle belonged to Koháry family, later to Coburg family. Sitno and its environs is considerd a birthplace of European tourism in moderate locations. Observation tower at the foot of the peak is in operation from Mai to September, at the same time it operates as information centre and also exposition of CHKO (Nature reserve) is located here.
