Important information and trip conditions: Participants of the trip take part on their own responsibility. We do not provide travel insurance for the participants. watching.sk will provide expert commentary and spotting technique for observing of bears. We will observe them only from tourist path. This trip is not open for public (people without prior registration – we need all the data required in the application form). The observation will be carried out from safe distance 700 – 1 500 meters, so we should not come into a close contact with this animal deliberately. We do not advise this trip for children under 10 years of age.

In case of bad weather we will keep you posted about the possible cancellation of the trip both on our website and our Facebook page in the evening before the trip. The trip is automatically cancelled in case the Slovak hydrometeorological institute issues a warning for that day.
