If you are going just for a normal vacation, doing the main trails, there is no need for real mountain shoes. it is enough of some better shoes with thicker bottom as the ways are like in this picture, or check pictures in travelogues. Actually for me was enough simple sport wear.

Hiking in Slovensky Raj, or Slovak Paradise. Be prepared to walk along a granite ledge, on metal lattice coming out of the rock and a shear drop off below to the river. There is a chain to hold on to, hold on! Actually this is great fun. The trap is you fall in love with this country!

i have not seen them, but i was told that a week before i came a bear walked down the mountain into the streets of the town in which i stayed.very important: the rule of the government is to stamp yyour passport for every night you have spend in thier country so you must stay in hotel and other establishments, but no one will tell you about it when you come to the country and no one will admite they have to stamp your passport so you realy have to stend on your right otherwise you might pay a very very big fine (is it a way of making money for a poor country?)

Well, if I tell you the truth, Slovakia is the safe and peaceful place I´ve been. The only warning is when youtravel by car: Many horses, some people, etc in the meedleof any road!!. But, perhaps the worse is the bad or no indicators in the roads, so be careful in all the crossroads and buy the bestmap you can.

I had a lot of trouble getting my visa for slovakia. i applied 3 weeks before i left and after lots of phone calls it only turned up about 12 hours before i was due to leave. You must have a valid transit visa if you are catching a train that runs through Slovakia. It was difficult although not impossible to get visas after you have left Australia.

Strong Beer!!!

by Robmj

An enjoyable danger, but watch the local brews, many I found ranged from 10-12%, can sneak up on you if you don't suspect.They are very nice by the way, enjoy!
