KOŠICE REGION
SPIŠ CASTLE
This is the most photogenic locality in our destination
that has not escaped the attention of the CNN
or the National Geographic. It is one of the most
valuable historical monuments, the pride of the whole
country and one of the largest castle complexes
in Central Europe. It is no wonder that Spiš Castle is
also listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
BETLIAR MANSION
The Betliar Mansion is a majestic hunting lodge
surrounded by a beautiful English park. In its interior,
visitors may appreciate a gallery of paintings,
a library, original antique furniture and exotic
collections. It is the only mansion in Slovakia whose
interior remained intact after World War II.
TATRA NATIONAL PARK
This pride of Slovakia offers spectacular views
of one of the most beautiful mountain ranges
in Central Europe often called the “Little Alps”.
It is a year-round destination, which will benefit
both summer tourists and skiers. The most
popular and visited tourist centres are Tatranská
Lomnica, Starý Smokovec, and Štrbské Pleso.
The well-known travel guide Lonely Planet has
declared Tatras as the most important summer
destination of Europe in 2019. The High Tatras are
a paradise for adventurers. They offer waterfalls,
alpine meadows, and over 100 ultramarine lakes.
ČERVENÝ KLÁŠTOR AND PIENINY
Under the Pieniny, in the shadow of the Three
Crowns, there stands a Carthusian Monastery,
known as the Červený kláštor (Red Monastery).
It was built at the beginning of the 14 th century
during Historic Hungary. Today it is a museum
and tourist attraction. The river near Červený
Kláštor enters a beautiful canyon called the Dunajec
Gorge. The Dunajec rafting on traditional wooden
rafts is the biggest tourist attraction.
