Slovakia’s continental climate guarantees warm summers and cold winters. The surroundings are beautiful. Especially the seasonal changes from winter to spring and from summer to autumn is magical, with breathtaking colors. Especially at these times, with its favorable weather conditions, it is wonderful to go on a hike. Nine of Slovakia’s nature reserves have been declared national park, offering around 12.000 km of well-maintained hiking trails. Detailed maps are readily available, in fact, Slovakia’s trails are among the best marked in Europe. Red marking leads along the hills of all accessible mountains; green, blue, and yellow mark the roads along the mountains. The High-and Low Tatras and the Slovak Paradise are very popular for hikers.

In this environment a true festival of aromas is guaranteed. Fields-full of wild flowers and herbs, cherry blossoms, fresh mountain air, campfires, freshly cut grass, and the forests with their variety of trees and where mushrooms grow abundantly, will wake up your senses. Aroma is just one of many ways in which Slovakia’s nature is amazing. To name all twelve-hundred species of Slovakian flora would be impossible but among the herbs are wild thyme and mint; there are wild strawberries, wild roses, cherries, and walnut trees.  For bird lovers among us, don’t forget to pack binoculars! Bird diversity includes finches, song thrushes, owls, crows, jays, oriole, storks- even black ones. Fisherman generally fish for trout and carp in our beautiful lakes, rivers, and streams.

Slovakia’s festivals are a feast for the eyes and the soul... It speaks for itself that the local vibe should be explored, and that can be done thanks to the hospitable residents and their relaxing lifestyle. Folklore festivals and markets, where traditional Slovak costumes, music, dance, and all kinds of local products can be enjoyed, take place mostly in the summer. One of its delicacies, a sweet treat which originated in Hungary, is the Trdelník, typically made in cozy market stalls. Depending on the baking process, it can also be called a chimney cake. Baking is done on long wooden rolls over an open charcoal fire. The treats are then sprinkled with any variety of sugars or spices, such as cinnamon, but also with ground walnuts. Highly recommended!

Slovakia has many restaurants to enjoy delicious food and drinks quite inexpensively. Slovakia boasts a varied cuisine. A typical Slovakian meal would be halušky or bryndza, but most places offer a variety of European dishes like steak, schnitzel, pizza, etc. Vegetarian dishes are often on the menu as well, but if not, it might be good to know that in Slovakia it is possible to order sides dishes, so a meal is easy to put together. Do be aware that in some cases, ‘vegetarian dishes’ are prepared with meat.
