Published: 26.8.2020
Recently, a practical book re-edition of tourist guides with a backpack around Slovakia from the family publishing house Dajama saw the light of day. In addition to attractive tourist destinations, it also brings tourist maps.
Each of the books contains the 20 most beautiful hiking trails in the individual mountains, route profiles, timetables, elevations and map sections. There are tips and attractions on the routes and a novelty in the form of tourist maps at a scale of 1: 50,000.
Lesser Tatras
Are you going to go to the second highest mountain range in Slovakia during the coming autumn? So you must not miss the updated guide, with which you will explore the western part of the Low Tatras formed by the Ďumbier Tatras and the eastern part called the Královoholské Tatras with Kráľová hoľa. Among other things, you will learn that the most sought-after valleys in this mountain range include Jánská dolina and Děmenovská dolina, where cavers have discovered more than 170 caves and abysses.
Western Tatras
With the new guides you can also explore the Western Tatras, formerly called Liptovské hole, because, unlike the mostly rocky Eastern Tatras, they are mostly hilly. Only Roháče are more rocky, which are rightly considered to be their most beautiful part. The Roháč valley is lined with a wreath of beautiful peaks, which are "reigned" by the majestic Baníkov. Ostrý Roháč and Volovec are again Roháč "princes". The publication will also take you to a popular route around Roháčské ples, to a waterfall or to the beautiful Juráňová valley.
Slovakian Paradies
Mimořádně přitažlivá krajina krasových planin a soutěsek, které turisté překonávají po žebřících kolem hučících vodopádů. Zavřete oči a představte si Slovenský ráj. Nachází se zde téměř 200 jeskyní a propastí, nádherné doliny a soutěsky. Nový aktualizovaný průvodce Slovenským rájem vás provede jeho nejkrásnějšími místy a díky přiložené mapě se určitě neztratíte.
