SK, Tourist Walk to Maly and Velky Plesivec
In the following photo gallery we will take you to the Small Carpathians, more precisely to the surroundings of the village of Cachtice. Our goal will be to get to Maly and Velky Plesivec, which surrounds the Nature Reserve of the same name. The reserve is not only important for its aesthetic dimension but also for the natural one.. On the way, we enjoy a gradual climb, magical views of the countryside or views of majestic medieval castles.
