KOŠICE REGION

TWO-DAY EXPERIENCE STAY

Wine Cellar / Ostrožovič

WINE ROUTE

There is truth in wine... This is how one may summarize this unique trip, during

which you will not only get to know our smallest wine-growing region of Tokaj,

taste the wines from the best winemakers in unique areas of tuff cellars, but

also get to know Košice, the metropolis of eastern Slovakia. We will take you

to the most beautiful places and lookout towers from which you will have

a unique view of our region and individual destinations.

VISITING

City of Košice, Tokaj Wine-Growing Region,

East Slovak Wine-Growing Region

VINEYARDS OF TOKAJ

Tokaj is primarily the birthplace of the royal liquor,

but it hides a lot of the unknown. This unique place

is complemented not just by historical tufa cellars,

barrels full of wine, picturesque villages with an abundant

history, where the secrets of the past reveal

cultural and historical monuments, but it is also

unique by the hard and conscientious work of wine

growers, wine producers, and locals. Fairytale-like

walks through the vineyards and surrounding

countryside, traditional homemade food and pleasant

rural accommodation will enchant anyone who visits

this unique part of Slovakia.

ORECHOVÁ CELLAR

Orechová Cellar processes grapes from its own

vineyards grown on an area of 54 hectares.

The wine-growing lines belong to the East

Slovakian wine-growing region and are

planted on the south-western slopes of the Vihorlat

mountains. The Vihorlat mountain range was

formed at the end of the Tertiary as a result

of extensive volcanic activity. The rare volcanic

andesites are the geological basis of vineyards

in the wine-growing village of Orechová. Orechová

wine has a unique taste and is unique, thanks to its

geographical location and local climatic conditions.

KOŠICE

A unique Central European metropolis and the second

largest city in Slovakia. Košice is also the scene

of the oldest marathon in Europe and the second

oldest in the world. You will find the longest

pedestrian zone in Slovakia or the easternmost Gothic

cathedral in Europe, which is also the largest church

in Slovakia - St. Elizabeth Cathedral. A popular stop

is also in the Eastern Slovak Museum, where you will

discover the Košice Gold Treasure. A perfect view

of the whole city will be offered from the Lookout

Tower near the largest ZOO in Slovakia. Romantic

streets and unique summer atmosphere of restaurants

in the historic centre will convince you that

Košice is really one of the European capitals.
