Liptovske Sliace: Teplica Spring, Folklore and Hotels

The Teplica Spring in Liptovské Sliače has a constant temperature of 16 °C. As a result, the stream flowing from it does not freeze over in winter.

Nature

The Teplica Spring, also called Čertovica, is a mofette spring from which gases escape. The travertine hill of the Teplica Spring resembles a volcano with a crater in shape. Thus, a distinctive spring type and a striking geological formation stand side by side at the same natural site.

The Sliačske travertines nature reserve includes a small wetland with characteristic flora and fauna. The Sliačske travertines nature reserve can be reached from Vyšný Sliač via a narrow asphalt road. A blue-marked hiking trail leads from the “Lipt.Sliače,Vyšný Sliač,garáž” bus stop to the Sliačske travertines nature reserve and the Teplica Spring.

The 68 km-long, blue-marked Vlkolínec–Pribylina MTB route runs along field roads through Liptovské Sliače towards Partizánska Ľupča.
