Overview

This roadtrip starts and ends in the capital of Slovakia, Bratislava, and was performed in real life by us in September/2023! So all the tips here come from our exactly experience visiting those places.

Also, we've included the exactly accommodations and restaurants that we have stayed/visited in order to bring the most precise recommendation possible!

We tried our best to avoid too-long drives and the biggest one is in the first day and takes about 3h30 (340km). In the following days, the itinerary is optimized to proceed stopping in our interest points and the drive between them should get short.

Slovakian highways turned out to be super well done and easy to drive!

What to expect?

Our roadtrip contains one moderate hike in the astonishing High Tatras Mountains and visits to several castles in Slovakia countryside!

If you're not very fond of hiking, you can skip the day 1 and continue with the rest of the guide, but we really recommend visiting the mountains even so, since they're so beautiful!!!
