General presentation
Paradis slovaque
National park of gorges, ladders, footbridges, waterfalls and wooded plateaus around Suchá Belá, Prielom Hornádu and Dedinky.
Suchá Belá, Prielom Hornádu and Kláštorisko give the most telling landmarks of Slovak Paradise. Together, they form a destination where forests, mountain reliefs, natural spaces and riverscapes meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is necessary to schedule fairly sustained days. Also to be anticipated: technical routes with ladders and slippery after rain. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Throat
Suchá Belá
Suchá Belá sums up the character of the Paradis slovaque Bridges, waterfalls, metal ladders and progression in a narrow throat. The experience is spectacular but requires good shoes and a cautious rhythm, especially after rain.
Canyon hiking
Prielom Hornádu
The Prielom Hornádu Follows the river with paths, bridges and passages attached to the rock. It offers a longer and smooth version of the park, where walking alternates forest, living water and aerial sections.
Cave
Grotte de glace de Dobšiná
The Dobšiná ice cave adds a very different underground stage from the gorges. The guided tour reveals icy volumes, marked freshness and rare natural heritage, but schedules and seasonal opening must be anticipated.
