Discover the glitz and glory of Červený Kameň, one of the most spectacular castles in the country. Its impressive interior is only matched by its exquisite surroundings. Experience the fierce legacy of the former Kingdom of Hungary, immortalized in the cuisine of southern Slovakia, and discover a hidden gem tucked away in the gentle countryside of the lowlands.

Heading into the Slovak highlands, we will stop at Dracula's castle in Orava. Perched atop a cliff, it must be the most dramatic of Slovak fortresses.

Liptov
