マラファトラでののおすすめグラベルライド

Dolný Kubín is one of the main towns of the Orava region and a great starting point for cyclists exploring the Slovak part of the Carpathians. Situated on the Orava River, the town offers a beautiful centre with a pedestrian zone and a historic bridge, as well as numerous shops and accommodation options. The Orava Museum and the castle in nearby Oravský Podzámok are worth a visit. The access to Dolný Kubín leads through picturesque valleys and well-maintained roads, also suitable for trekking bikes. It is a good place to spend the night or regenerate before continuing your route through the mountains or towards Liptov.

Orava Castle is one of the most beautifully situated castles in Slovakia – it rises on a steep cliff above the Orava River, in the village of Oravský Podzámok. It consists of three levels of buildings, which were built from the 13th century and today create a picturesque complex with courtyards, towers and a chapel. Inside, there is a museum presenting the history of the region, the castle and old life in Orava. You can get there by bike from the main road no. 59 – it is worth being careful due to car traffic. The tour takes some time and is best booked in advance.

Such a path is neither. In some places good and sometimes bad.

Very nicely decorated place. This is especially true for the churches.

Very nice view of the castle.

An excellent dirt road leads from the beginning

Beautiful chapel at the highest point at Malatiná. It's all downhill from here.
