Avalanche Activity

Watch out for wet snow on sunny slopes on southern exposures.

In the Tatras and Low Tatras there is only a SMALL avalanche danger = 1st degree. Snow cover is generally stable. The snow cover is firn-like and stable in most locations. Avalanche release is possible only sporadically on exposed southern slopes, especially with the arrival of midday and warming temperatures. Spontaneous avalanches are not expected.

Snowpack Structure

We expect clear and warm weather. Snow cover is generally stable. The snow from the last snowfall period has been remade and settled. Depending on orientation, continuous snow cover is between 1400 and 1700 m above sea level. Its height reaches 30 to 150 cm, with the most snow in the Low Tatras.
