The main ridge of Čergov, located in eastern Slovakia northwest of Prešov, is a unique and excellent hiking area, because although we are in a mid-mountain range, the ridge dotted with meadows and groves offers an alpine atmosphere with continuous views. Čergov is great for hiking in all seasons: in spring and summer you can enjoy bird-song and floral walks, in autumn the colorful foliage of varied forests will enchant you, and in winter you can snowshoe without avalanche danger among the magical snowdrifts of the ridge, often above the clouds.
