Travel Guide, Slovakia

In this country traveling is always a pleasure. In the winter the mountains are covered with snow and offer a good playground for winter sports enthousiasts, in the summer they are host to various activities such as rafting, mountainbiking, climbing and hiking.

Besides the mountains, there are many cities where the Habsburger history is still visible through its many beautiful buildings. Good food can be found around virtually every corner and prices are reasonably low.

Concluded a very interesting country to visit without being bothered by busloads of other tourists!
