The Tatra Mountains are a series of mountains within the Western Carpathian chain that form a natural border between Slovakia and Poland. It was established as an official UNESCO biosphere reserve in 1955. The best time to hike the Tatra mountains is from July to October when most trails are open. Sadly this period is also the busiest time, and completely overrun by tourists. May is a good time to visit, but some of the trails in the high Tatras may still be closed and there is a chance you end up with a bit of winter hiking.

Let the pictures speak! Glance thru' these 50 STUNNING PHOTOS THAT WILL MAKE YOU WANT TO GO TO SLOVENIA THIS WINTER
Winter hiking in Slovenia offers a tranquil adventure through snow-covered landscapes. As you tread through the quiet, snow-covered trails, you'll be enveloped in a serene, peaceful atmosphere. The snow cover dulls ambient noise, enhancing the feeling of tranquillity. With proper winter gear, one can savor the crisp, cold air and the stunning views of snow-laden trees and mountains. Winter hikes are ideal for those seeking a magical and calming outdoor experience.

In destinations like Kranjska Gora, the snow creates a serene ambience, muffling sounds and providing a peaceful hike. Adequate winter equipment and a guide are recommended. Paths can be explored both during the day and under the magical glow of a full moon.

After our flight into KLIA, we drive up Cameron for our 4WD pickup to the foothill of the treehouse passing by various farms & plantations on steep slopes of the highland & pristine forests.

Living with basic facilities yet feeling very fulfilled, relaxed & in harmony with Mother Nature is the theme of this retreat. Homestay is M'sia Top 10 tree-house Terra Tree House, 和平农场树屋. We have booked the entire tree house for this date!

The cool, crisp air and lush, green vegetation in Cameron Highlands make it a popular highland getaway. From your first lungful of fragrant highland air, sweat and stress will evaporate. The breeze is freshened by eucalyptus, fuzzy tea plantations roll into the distance, and strawberry farms snooze under huge awnings. Temperatures in these 1300 m to 1829 m heights rarely top 30°C. This fresh climate inspires convoys of visitors to pick strawberries and sip tea here each weekend.

Main highlight
Nestled among greenery, Terra Tree House offers an immersive nature experience, with picturesque views of the forest and the neighbouring Terra Forest Farm deep in the mountain region of Cameron Highlands. We will call this treehouse HOME for 3 days. The healthy organic vegetarian meals are always the most memorable time from all our past trip feedbacks.

和平农场的树屋，树屋位于森林里，而建造树屋最初的概念，正因为这里山势较陡，我们不想动用机器把土地铲平以做大规模的农业用途。树屋，也许可以让更多人有机会亲近森林，大自然.
To preserve this wonderful, beautiful & pristine land, they refuse to use any machine for land levelling & massive agriculture development purposes. Upholding their vision of providing more people the opportunity to get closer to Mother Nature, they have worked hard to retain its original appearance.

Upon arrival at the entrance, be prepared for a mini-workout as you will need to do a 10-15 min hike on wooden steps from the entrance up the hill before reaching your accommodation. Hence, we recommend that you pack a lightweight backpack and avoid bringing trolley luggage.
With the luxurious fresh air and scenic view offered, you are much welcome to take your own sweet time, slowing down your pace, breathing in the fresh air & enjoy the breathtaking view!

Only organic vegetarian Meals are provided. No meat/seafood. You are not allowed to bring canned meat as it attracts wild animals. This is a Muslim-friendly place but they do not hold any halal certification.
