Lucivna: Ski hotel, snow park and panoramic views of the High Tatras

The Lučivná Snow Park combines several clearly defined winter sports activities: Four ski lifts provide access to 1.5 km of ski runs, and 3 km of cross-country ski trails are also available. A snow tubing run complements the facilities. From the snow park, panoramic views extend across the High Tatras.

Winter

This means that Lučivná offers documented opportunities for alpine skiing as well as cross-country skiing and snow tubing. The four ski lifts, the ski runs and the cross-country trails each belong to the Lučivná Snow Park; the stated distances remain separate: 1.5 km account for the ski runs, and 3 km for the cross-country ski trails. The view of the High Tatras is another component of the winter sports offering described there.

Culture

In addition to winter sports, two churches shape the cultural character of Lučivná. The Catholic church was built in the Classicist style and is dedicated to Saint Martin, the bishop. The Protestant church contains the painting “The Good Shepherd” by Peter Michal Bohúň. Both places of worship therefore represent different denominational traditions and each preserve their own architectural or artistic features.

History

Lučivná Castle is part of the history of the village. Its foundation stone was laid around the year 1450. In 1584, the Tököli family had the castle rebuilt in the Renaissance style. The castle also includes the family cemetery of the Sakmáry-Varadi family, which has been preserved to this day. Thus, the castle reflects both the approximately dated founding phase and the clearly documented reconstruction from 1584.

Health and landscape

Tatranské Kúpele Lučivná adds another area of importance. The tradition of treatments dates back to 1872. The spa grounds extend across more than 47 hectares of a forest park. Tatranské Kúpele Lučivná make a significant contribution to the medical treatment of non-tuberculous respiratory diseases in children and adults. The reference to children and adults is explicitly part of this medical area.

Getting there

Lučivná Castle is located 1.5 km from the Mengusovce motorway exit of the D1. From Lučivná railway station, the castle can be reached on foot in about 10 minutes. A new cycle path between Lopušná dolina and Lučivná was opened to the general public on 6 June 2021. Thus, for the castle, the distance to the D1 exit, the approximate walking time from the railway station and the cycle path’s connection with Lopušná dolina are all specified in concrete terms.
