We decided to climb the highest peak of the Branisko mountain range — Sľubica. In the morning, we arrive at the picturesque village of Vojkovce, where our hike begins. We meet a local resident who asks us if we’re afraid of bears. As long as we don’t see them, we’re not afraid…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readTrip to Sivá BradaHi, Not far from Spiš Castle, there is a small hill. Even from a distance, you can notice that it is somewhat special. No trees grow on it, and there is a chapel at the top. Part of its slope is covered in white rock. This rock is travertine, and today I will write about our trip to the protected area called Sivá Brada. We had passed Sivá…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 3 min readTrip to lake ÚhornáHi, At work, we talked about different places where I could go with my kids on a trip during my vacation. I already had some ideas and had chosen places I definitely wanted to visit with them. A colleague who loves to travel and enjoys hiking, just like me, suggested a place I didn't know about. She advised us to go see Lake Úhorná. We followed…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 5 min readTrip to PribylinaHi My three-year-old son loves trains, and I love history and nature. Fortunately, in Slovakia, there’s a place where we can combine both of our interests. That place is the Liptov Village Museum in Pribylina. So, one fine summer day, we set out on an adventure there. My son would definitely love it if we traveled to Pribylina by train, but I…photoparadise in # blurt • 2 years ago • 3 min readTrip to Levočská valleyHi It’s another warm summer day, perfect for being near water. Especially if you have kids with you who love the water. I thought it would be a great idea. Let’s go somewhere to cool off. We have a swimming pool in the city, but I wanted to combine our time by the water with a trip. In the morning, I packed our things, we got into the car, and…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readTrip to Vrbické plesoHi Every summer, we meet up with friends from college for an extended weekend. It's a kind of tradition for us. It's a family gathering, which means there are ten adults and a lot of children at the cabin. Every year, we choose a place where we will meet, and this year we picked a cabin in Jasná, Slovakia. Jasná is a recreational area in…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 3 min readTrip to Palcmanská MašaHi In the Slovak Paradise National Park, in addition to the beautiful wild gorges, dense forests, and steep rocky slopes, there is also the Palcmanská Maša reservoir. It is the largest water reservoir in the Slovak Paradise area. Over the years, this place has become a popular recreational area where people like to cool off during the warm…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readTrip to the Contact ZOOHi, Since I was a child, I was taught to love nature and animals. I spent a lot of time in the forest, mainly thanks to my father. He worked in the forest, planting trees and taking care of them. And I used to help him, even though as a little boy, I probably didn’t contribute much. Nonetheless, we saw many animals that live in the forest, and…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 5 min readTrip to Chmarošský viaduktHi My three-year-old son loves trains, and I decided to make him happy. I prepared a surprise for him and my daughter. Not only will we take a train ride, but we'll also see a train passing over the most famous viaduct in Slovakia. We set out on a trip by train to cross the Chmarošský viaduct. We wake up a little earlier than usual, even…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readTrip to lake BlajzlochHi So far, I haven’t really sought out lakes and reservoirs as destinations for my trips. My usual goals were beautiful gorges, mountain peaks, or castles and palaces. But that was when I went hiking, seeking adventure and knowledge, alone. Now, most of the time, my two kids join me. And what can I say? They enjoy throwing stones into the water…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readTrip to Hodkovce castleHi I wanted to take a close look at this manor for a while now, but I never got around to it. I know that it has a beautiful garden and that it is maintained by rather unconventional caretakers. It’s a lovely summer day, and today is my mom’s name day. She invited us to a restaurant for a celebratory lunch. We drove for about half an hour…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readTrip with Stream lokomotive Papagáj and locomotive OkuliarnikHi This post came to be thanks to my three-year-old son and his love for trains. I wanted to make him happy and show him a steam locomotive—not in a museum, but right on the track. Nowadays, you rarely see such a train fully functional on the rails. I sat down at the computer and started searching. Whoever searches, finds. And I found one too…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readKežmarok CastleHi, Today we went on a trip to the historic town of Kežmarok. There are many things in this town worth seeing. We are going to visit the Kežmarok Castle, a fortress that has protected this town in the Spiš region for many years. My two small children are coming with me. I have a feeling that entertainment is guaranteed. Kežmarok Castle is…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 3 min readIn RabkolandHi Summer has started and with it the holidays of my two kindergartners. The time has come to come up with a program and trips so that they can enjoy them above all. And so the idea of going on a trip to the children's amusement park Rabkoland was born. This park is located approximately two hours away by car from our house. Both of them…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 3 min readCycling trip to Poľana pod MuráňomHi. At first I thought that I would not write an article about this cycling trip, but in the end it turned out differently as you can see. In the morning, I prepared my things, checked the bike and I go along the dirt road through the field we have near the city. Of course I took my camera with me. You know, if something interests me, let…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readA trip to the forest around SvidníkHi, On the last day of our trip around the town of Svidník, we decided to live a little unconventionally. We saw an old wooden church, or the landscape where the heaviest battles took place during the Second World War on the territory of Slovakia. We will enjoy today in nature and relax. In the evening, we agreed where we wanted to go and…photoparadise in Curators Community • 2 years ago • 3 min readBattles at DuklaHi In today's post, we will look at history, at the battles during the Second World War. I will tell you about the historical events that happened during the liberation of Slovakia. We also visited this area on our trip around eastern Slovakia. The weather is kind to us, so let's do it. In 1944, the Slovak National Uprising broke out in…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 3 min readTrip to BodružalHi. As part of our trip through eastern Slovakia, we came close to the Slovak-Polish border. Near them there is a picturesque village with a very interesting cultural monument. I am glad that in today's post I can write about my trip to the wooden church in the village of Bodružal. I will probably start with the most important. This…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readTrip to Slovak opal minesHi, I like to visit interesting places where I haven't been before, so I came up with another educational and experiential trip to eastern Slovakia for myself and my friends. Despite the fact that the weather is supposed to be nice and sunny, we will hide underground from the sun. We will go underground, to once famous and later forgotten…photoparadise in Blurt Travel • 2 years ago • 4 min readSchulerloch observation towerHi, We have a beautiful warm spring and it would be a shame not to take advantage of these beautiful days, for example, for a cycling trip. It will be my second cycling trip this year and today I will go with you to see the places where I like to cycle and where I like to relax. We will cycle through the forest, as usual. I'm taking a…
