From Hrebienok Through the Waterfalls to Zamkovského chata

Easy pleasant walk suitable for families with children. We start at Hrebienok, where we got by the funicular from Starý Smokovec. We continue towards Bilíkova chata and waterfalls ( ). After 0,15 h we get to a junction Rázcestie nad Dlhým vodopádom. It pays off to descend a few meters on a yellow trail ( ) and have a look at a waterfall Dlhý vodopád. We return to the junction and continue to a waterfall Veľký vodopád. The waterfall can be seen directly from a bridge under it. Then we continue along a creek Studenovodský potok and its cascades to a chalet Rainerova chata. We cross a wooden bridge and we’re headed to Zamkovského chata along the Tatranská magistrála ( ) and the green trail ( ). Along the way we pass the beautiful Obrovský vodopád („Huge Waterfall“). Zamkovského chata is also a starting point for example for Téryho chata or Skalnate pleso. We can return to Hrebienok directly (without the detour through waterfalls) following the red trail ( ).
