To begin, in the western region Zahorie is known for its uique cake , but there is a truly unique place called “Sranecke piesky”. It is the largest area of exposed soft sand in Central Europe, dating back to the alternating periods of ice and interglacial ages when the sand was brought by the wind from the Morava River. Besides the sandy area, you can also expect to see various biotopes such as Pontic-Pannonian oak forests, pine forests, and rare animals. In total, there can be found 19 biotopes of European importance.This place is not only photogenic for the richly planted trees but it also offers breathtaking views of the Lesser Carpathians and Plavecky Castle.
The way to the skyTo take a selfie in the clouds, you should definitely visit the meadow by the village Dubravica. There you will find a ladder that leads to the sky. This 4 metres high wooden attraction was created by the visual artist Matej Rosmany. It offers panoramic views of the beautiful central Slovak region. (safe to climb as it is sufficiently anchored in the ground)
Another stairway to the clouds can be found near Bratislava. Devinska Kobyla has a very atypical look and construction, with a shape symbolizing the fighting posture of a mantis. It contains three viewing platforms, while each offers a view of a different surrounding area. Simply a great place for unique pics!
Another original viewpoint to visit is the Zbojska tower built in Muranska Planina national park. Since it is built in traditional wooden architecture and surrounded by beautiful forests, it offers truly astonishing views. The building consists of a small chapel with a unique interior and an upper tower where you can sound the bell over the valley.
But in case you don't want to travel far from the capital, at the foot of the Little Carpathians, there is a wooden tower called Velka Homola, offering splendid views of the surrounding area.
Finally, the last original viewpoint to mention is Hniezdo, meaning nest, which is located in Malinovo and truly thematic.
