Liptovská Mara

Highlight • Lake

Liptovská Mara is the largest water reservoir in Slovakia, located in the Liptovská Basin, between the Tatras and the Low Tatras. It is a popular holiday destination with swimming areas, beaches, water sports and boat trips. The lake is surrounded by asphalt and gravel roads, which are great for cycling trips with a view of the mountains. On the southern shore there is the Havránok lookout - an archaeological site with a replica of a Celtic settlement. In the season, it is worth avoiding weekend crowds - some of the routes run along busy roads. With a bit of luck, we can see a mirror reflection of the Tatras in the water.

Sestrčská Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The Sester Valley, also known as the Malatinska Valley, is a picturesque and deeply cut valley in the Choč Mountains, which crosses the entire range from south to north. It separates the Prosieczny Group from the Sielnické Vrchy and runs along the Sestrčský stream. It is named after the now defunct settlement of Sestrč, whose area was flooded during the construction of the Liptovská Mara reservoir in the 1970s. The route through the valley leads from Bukovina to Malatiná and is closed to car traffic, making it an ideal section for cyclists looking for peace and quiet and wilderness.

View of Malatiná Village

Highlight • Viewpoint

Malatiná is a small, picturesquely situated village in northern Slovakia, in the Orava region, surrounded by the gentle hills of the Orava foothills. It is a good place for a quiet stop during a cycling trip - the village is crossed by local asphalt roads with little traffic. The surrounding areas offer beautiful views of the Tatras and the Choč Mountains.

Spa Lúčky

Highlight • Rest Area

Located above the village Lucky is this small Spa town holding the same name - Spa Lucky. Once very popular for treating all women's health problems it still remains on the list of the most popular spas in Slovakia. Nested in very nice nature offers great opportunities for walks. If cycling through, this can offer a great stop with access to the public pool as well as some restaurants.

Lúčky Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Lúčanský waterfall is about 13 meters high and is one of the few waterfalls in Slovakia located directly in the center of the village. It was formed on the stream flowing into the spa valley of Lúčky, known for its thermal waters and treatment of musculoskeletal diseases.

The water flows over limestone rocks forming travertine cascades characteristic of this Liptov region. In 1974, the waterfall was declared a nature monument.
