The Bielovodská Valley (Slovak: Bielovodská dolina), on the border between Slovakia and Poland, is the only valley in the Alpine Tatras and the longest of all the Tatras: it is more than 10 km (6.20 mi) and during the Last Glacial Period, there was a glacier 14 km (8.70 mi) long and more than 300 m (984 ft) thick. The water flows through the Biela voda (Polish: Białka) River.
