International colleagues and doctoral students working or studying at Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice were invited to join a hiking trip to the High Tatras on 10 October 2026.
We explored Popradské Pleso, the fourth-largest mountain lake in the High Tatras, with a maximum depth of 17 metres and a surface area of 6.88 hectares. The trail around the lake offered stunning views of the surrounding Tatra peaks and beautiful autumn scenery.
The trip gave participants an opportunity to meet and network with international colleagues from different faculties and departments, enjoy time outdoors, and experience Slovak culture and the autumn beauty of the High Tatras.
The Euraxess Welcome Office would like to thank all participants for the wonderful time spent together and looks forward to welcoming everyone at future events.
This activity was organised as part of a project funded by the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic, entitled “Strengthening and Sustaining Euraxess Centres in Slovakia”.
