Early History: The High Tatras have a long history dating back to ancient times when they were likely inhabited by various tribes. However, due to the harsh mountainous terrain, permanent settlements were limited.

Middle Ages: The region around the Tatras was part of the Kingdom of Hungary, and the mountains were used for grazing and hunting by local communities. The name "Tatry" is derived from the Slavic word "tatri," meaning mountains.

Exploration and Cartography: In the 18th and 19th centuries, the High Tatras began to attract explorers, scientists, and cartographers. Efforts were made to accurately map and describe the mountain range.
