Sensational Summers

Slovakia's climate is continental and seasonal. In the summer, with temperatures regularly reaching 30 degrees Celsius, Slovakia has plenty of diverse activities for those seeking either a relaxing or adventurous holiday.

The High Tatras of the Carpathian Mountains are the perfect place for cycling and hiking with a dense network of well marked trails of various difficulties. Climbing, white water rafting, fishing, swimming, hand gliding and pleasure rafting are also popular activities. This area of outstanding natural beauty has a magnitude of rivers, creeks, gorges, and underground caves, many of the country's caves are open to the public for tours including the dazzling Dobsinska Ice Cave - yes real ice!

From April until the end of October, golfers and their families can use the region's three golf courses and with golf's increasing popularity many new courses and facilities are being planned and should dramatically improve Slovakia's attractiveness for keen golfers.

After all that adventure you can soak away your aches and pains with a relaxing trip to one of the many thermal spas and mineral springs. Slovakia has an abundance of Health Spas & Wellness centres with a long tradition of treatments and an internationally recognised reputation. Her natural health and thermal spas have been developed due to the extraordinary number of curative springs. The health spa at Vysne Ruzbachy has exceptionally favourable climatic conditions which together with the healing effects of her natural mineral waters form the perfect health spa healing programme.
