Poprad Tatry (Slovakia) - Driver's Eye View & Workshop Tour
We take one last ride with the Tatra Electric Railway “Comet” vintage locomotive. Our train reverses out of the high level station to gain access to the works branch for a very rare passenger working right into the works complex where we are welcomed by staff who take us on a fascinating tour, to see every day maintenance along with a selection of vintage stock, some of which was being restored to operating condition.

Poprad, Slovakia
SEE MY TRAVEL GROUP ON FACEBOOK :
Poprad (Hungarian: Poprád, German: Deutschendorf) is a city in northern Slovakia at the foot of the High Tatra Mountains famous for its picturesque historic centre and as a holiday resort. It is the biggest town of the Spiš region and the tenth largest city in Slovakia with a population of approximately 55,000 people.
The Poprad-Tatry Airport is an international airport located just outside the city. Poprad is also the starting point of the Tatra Electric Railway (known in Slovak as Tatranská elektrická železnica), a set of special narrow-gauge trains connecting the resorts in the High Tatras with each other and with Poprad. Main line trains link Poprad to other destinations in Slovakia and beyond; in particular, there are through trains running from Poprad to Prague in the Czech Republic.
The territory belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary since the 10th century and was probably originally inhabited by Slavic settlers. It was colonized in the 13th century by German settlers and became the largely German town Deutschendorf meaning 'Germans' village'. From 1412 to 1770, as one of the Szepes towns, Poprad was pawned by the Kingdom of Hungary to the Kingdom of Poland, resulting in a strong Polish influence on the city's further development.
Poprad itself, the first written reference to which dates from 1256, was for 690 years (up until 1946) just one of several neighbouring settlements, which currently make up the modern city. The other parts of the current municipality are Matejovce (first reference 1251), Spišská Sobota (1256), Veľká (1268), and Stráže pod Tatrami (1276). The most significant of these original towns was Georgenberg (or Szepesszombat, now: Spišská Sobota), which preserved its dominant position in the area until the late 19th century.
In 1999, Poprad put in a bid to host the 2006 Winter Olympics, but lost to Turin, Italy.
Poprad lies at an altitude of 672 metres above sea level. Poprad is situated on the Poprad River in the Sub-Tatra Basin, and is a gateway to the High Tatras. Mountain ranges around the city include the Levoča Hills in the east, Kozie chrbty in the south, and the Low Tatras in the southwest. The drainage divide between the Black Sea and Baltic Sea lies a bit to the west, near the village of Štrba.
Poprad lies in the north temperate zone and has a humid continental climate (Köppen Dfb) with four distinct seasons. It is characterised by a significant variation between warm summers and cold winters.
My channel on you tube : is one of the most prolific from Poland. I have produced over 2,100 original films.
My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects.
Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!
I am very fortunate that I can spend a large part of my life travelling, thanks to the business I chose to run which allows me to do this. There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.
Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!
Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!
The Tatra Mountains By Train Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination The Tatra Mountains By Train.
The High Tatra is the smallest high mountain range in Europe, a magnificent mountain landscape with majestic rocky mountains and many lakes. The High Tatra National Park was founded in 1947 and is an imposing natural paradise in the heart of Slovakia. On the banks of Štrbské Pleso is the Grand Hotel Kempinski which consists of three interconnected historical buildings. From the tower of its Honeymoon Suite is a fine view of Tschirmer Lake and the mountains of the High Tatra. The Tatra Railway travels from Štrbské Pleso Station which connects a number of the Tatra region’s spa resorts. The tram-like carriages are very comfortable and the route continues steadily uphill, the view gradually opening-up. The railway has become an indispensable means of transport for growing Tatra tourism. The development of tourism began here with the implementation of the railroad in 1871 and brought Bratislava and Vienna, closer. A regular service with the railroad began on 20th, November 1908. At Lomnitz Peak there is an overwhelming view of the vastness of the Zipsian Basin that was created during the Last Ice Age. Close by is Skalnate Pleso, a small and mysterious shimmering lake, one of more than a hundred of the region’s mountain lakes. Lomnitz Peak is often wrapped in clouds, its rock walls covered with dwarf pines that stretch down to the lake. Tatranská Lomnica is situated at an altitude of eight hundred and seventy metres on the southern foothills of Lomnitz Peak. Just six kilometres from Smokovce, this tranquil location was founded at the end of the nineteenth century and is one of the region’s earliest settlements. The Tatra Mountain experience features true nature and undisturbed tranquility as well as both a luxurious lifestyle and pure nostalgia, indigenous culture, atmospheric transport, and above all, mighty mountains!

Tatry Národnom Parký (Slovakia) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Tatry Národnom Parký in Slovakia.
The major part of the High Tatra National Park is located in Slovakia and extends to Poland. It is a splendid mountain landscape with high, rocky mountains and many lakes, was founded in 1947 and given the nickname, Crown Of Slovakia. A healthy tree population surrounds crystal clear mountain lakes and flora which came into existence at the end of the Last Ice Age. Wild boars roam freely in the extensive natural landscape. This is their natural environment in which there is a plentiful supply of food. Chamois can also be seen on the mountain slopes, and in summer between fifteen and thirty of them live in herds, which disband in winter. The high mountains are their retreat, and when they feel threatened they move up to inaccessible heights. The Tatra Railway travels from Štrbské Pleso Station which connects a number of the Tatra region’s spa resorts. The railway has become an indispensable means of transport for growing Tatra tourism. After several short stops is the oldest Tatra community of Strarý Smokovec and along the main road there are charming old villas in half-timbered style. Impressive cloud formations provide views of Lomnitz Peak, the third highest peak of the High Tatra. On the northern edge of Tatranská Lomnica, is a cable car station. Initially, it travels slightly uphill and the first section leads to a mountain station. In winter, there are snow-covered mountain slopes and, in summer, easy hiking trails. The Tatra Nature Park is the embodiment of pure nature, undisturbed tranquillity, indigenous wildlife and, above all, majestic mountains!

Motowycieczki - Tatry, Słowacja / Motorcycle trip - Tatry Mountains, Slovakia [2019.08.10]
Odkąd pierwszy raz pojechałem na Słowacje nie mogę tam nie wracać ;) To prawda, że są tam drogi nierówne, łatane, dziurawe, lecz w Polsce też są. Ale na Słowacji jest pewien klimat, który mnie urzekł. A mianowicie te przestrzenie pomiędzy miejscowościami, długie proste przeplatające się częstymi zakrętami.. No i te górzyste tereny, w szczególności Tatry Wysokie i Niskie :)
Kto raz się tam przejedzie to będzie chciał wracać!!
Pozdrowienia dla Jarka i Rafała za towarzystwo :)
p.s.
Przepraszam za plamę na filmie, nie zauważyłem tłustego nalotu, który zapewne był po owadzie.
