Route description:
From the center of Stary Smokovec, go left uphill along the street, passing the Grand Hotel. After a few minutes, reach the signs for the start of the trail, marked blue.
The blue trail continues first along a stony track with lush undergrowth, and this path goes almost to the junction with the Tatranská Magistrála (red-marked trail). It takes about 1 hour to get there.
After the junction, the trail enters the forest, and after half an hour of further walking, reach the first attractions along the trail, namely Slavkovská Vyhliadka (1531 m).
From Slavkovská Vyhliadka, enjoy a beautiful view of the Velike doline, the peaks on the other side of the mentioned valley, and Lomnický štít behind them.
From here, the trail continues over granite slabs, partly through scrub (dwarf pine). The trail further passes the peak Nos (2273 m), then follow a fairly steep path, partly over granite slabs, partly over grass, and one part also over short scree slopes, all the way to the 2452 m high summit, where a metal cross stands.

Along the route: Slavkovská Vyhliadka (1531m), Nos (2273m)
