Donovaly Live Cam

Donovaly is a popular ski resort and village located in the Low Tatras mountain range in central Slovakia. While the village itself has a history that goes back centuries, its development as a ski resort is more recent.

Historically, the area was used for logging and was sparsely populated. The name "Donovaly" is believed to be derived from the word "don" (valley) and "voli" (oxen), reflecting the agricultural and pastoral activities that took place in the region.

In the mid-20th century, the construction of a road through the area opened it up to tourism. Donovaly gradually became known for its natural beauty and outdoor recreational opportunities. However, it was in the late 20th century that Donovaly truly emerged as a significant ski resort.

The development of ski facilities, accommodation, and other infrastructure transformed Donovaly into a winter sports destination. Its location in the picturesque Low Tatras, combined with favorable snow conditions, attracted skiers and winter enthusiasts.
