Toute: Traversing over the Priečne Pass is very popular and is a challenge for many experienced hikers as you need to ascent the final sections with the help of chains.
This traverse allows for a beautiful loop Hrebienok > Téryho chata > Priečne sedlo > Zbojnícka chata > Hrebienok. Or in the opposite direction.
Best conditions: June to September, or without snow and ice. Best in dry conditions.

From Lysa Poľana – via Bielovodska Valley from the north
7 – 8h (↑ 1260m, ↓ 300m)
Route: Coming to our chalet from the north via Bielovodska Valley, the longest valley in Tatras, it is unlikely that you will meet other people. It’s a great adventure.
