HOLIDAY IDEAS sports & activities summer

Rafting using wooden rafts is one of the greatest tourist attractions of northern Slovakia. One of the unforgettable experiences is certainly rafting down the river Dunajec in the splendid natural scenery of the Pieniny National Park.

Slovak rivers and water areas offer many splendid views that can only be provided by a boat. During the summer season there are several popular places for boating or sailing, e.g.: the dams Liptovská Mara or Palcmanská Maša in the Slovak Paradise.

Slovakia, thanks to its dense river network and varied landforms, offers the option to navigate down the rivers of different size and type. Both, the most demanding fans of boating and families with children find here favourable conditions for boating.

Roller blading is a modern sport for those who like to be physically active and the age is not important. It has a lot to offer to everyone and it does not require an excellent physical condition. Some creations of this sport can make your blood run cold.

Suitable rivers in every part of the country and recently built modern water sports areas offer great conditions for kayaks and canoe lovers. This is one of the reasons why Slovak sportsmen belong to the world´s best. However, this sport is available not only to professionals.

Tired from the sun? Tired of the city? Come and refresh yourself on the water! Bratislava has a lot of options – whether you just want to take it easy over a Langoš (Hungarian deep-fried bread) with a Kofola (Slovak cola) or enjoy the peace of nature, here we will give you some tips.

One of the good ways of spending one´s time near water areas is making trips and cruises on recreation motor boats, yachts or water scooters. Holiday makers can use them at water areas according to the local rules /Liptovská Mara, Oravská priehrada, Zemplínska šírava, Zlaté Piesky, Slnečné jazerá/.

Ever more young people and families with children find rafting very attractive. It is a comparatively new adrenalin sport.

Man has always been tempted by the mysterious, the unexplored and the least accessible corners of the nature. The most mysterious are certainly the depths of lake and sea waters. The underwater world is fascinating by its beauty and variety. However, only those who have the courage to look deeper under the water level can experience something of it personally.
