Night in an Igloo: Unique Winter Adventure in the Tatra Mountains

Silence, Frosty Landscape and You: Experience Real Winter Wilderness

You do not have to travel to the North Pole to experience an arctic atmosphere and a night in an igloo, you can do it in Slovakia. We have prepared for you a challenging experience that will test your determination and resilience. Visit with us the snowy forests near the mountain village of Ždiar and enjoy the view of the Tatras.

Be aware – this is not a common accomodation experience or a luxury glamping igloo. It is authentic sleeping in the igloo for real adventurers. Enter the kingdom of snow, experience firsthand the winter wilderness with us and come out of your comfort zone. Leave with a remarkable experience that you will remember for the rest of your life.

Why choose a Night in the igloo with us?

The Expedition “Night in an Igloo” Begins: Backpacks on!

Our night in the igloo starts in Poprad – the imaginary gateway to the Tatras. From there, we will travel directly to the foot of the mountains near Zdiar. Our winter adventure begins where the noise of civilization ends. We will put on backpacks, snowshoes, and leave the noise of the world behind.

Ahead of us is a 3-kilometer march through the snowy wilderness of northern Slovakia during which we will enjoy the silence of the winter forest as well as beautiful views of the breathtaking Tatras panorama. This is just the beginning of our unforgettable night in the igloo.

Exchange 5 Stars for a Million Stars in the Sky

After an hour long walk, we are reaching our destination and taking off our backpacks. Here, in the middle of nowhere, there is only a shovel and determination – you have to build your own igloo. Block by block, the walls of your snow shelter are growing. It is a hard work that tests the adventurer inside you. But the moment you stand in front of the finished igloo and know that you have built it with your own hands is priceless.

Well-done work calls for a reward in the form of warmth and food. We will take shelter in a nearby log cabin – but we have to earn our dinner. Nothing is free in the mountains. Together we start a fire and begin to cook. Right at this moment, we are becoming a coordinated team. Enjoying food with new friends surrounded by crackling fire, while frost rages outside creates a unique atmosphere.

With our stomachs full, we prepare for the finale of the day – a night in the igloo. We change into dry clothes, grab our gear, and leave the warmth of the cabin. We crawl into our igloo, where, wrapped up in our sleeping bags we listen to the silence of the Tatra wilderness. When we turn off the lights and are left alone in the dark in the middle of the mountains, we understand what real life is all about. Good night in the kingdom of ice.

New Morning, New Me

Waking up to a frosty morning is magical, but warmth is simply warmth. We quickly move to the heated log cabin, where hot tea and a hearty breakfast await us – a well-deserved reward for a night in the wilderness. With a mug in your hand and a view of the Tatras, you can fully enjoy your victory over yourself. The journey back to civilization will pass quickly, but the memories and the realization that you can do more than you thought will stay with you forever.

The fact that this is an experience of a lifetime is confirmed by traveler Lydia, who completed a night in an igloo with us. Now it’s your turn – do you dare to write your own story? Book your date today!
