Slovak flag

I have spent many great holidays in Slovakia. In fact it was a visit to the village of Pod Rozusetc in 1992 that made me decide to move to Czechoslovakia. I am still a regular visitor to Slovakia and enjoys both hiking and biking - and, of course, taking photos of Slovakia. Slovakia has more spectacular countryside than the Czech Republic though the towns tend to be less attractive. Now sit back and enjoy my photos of Slovakia. Only 6 pages of them...

 
Mala Fatra hills
The rolling hills of the Mala Fatra. Not very high but strikingly beautiful and the home of a large number of brown bears.

 

Pod Rozusetec
In the Mala Fatra is a village called Pod Rozusetec. There are no roads to the village and just ten houses. The nearest shop is two kilometres away down the hill. The last two permanent residents of Pod Rozusetec died recently so all the houses are now 'chaty' - weekend cottages.

 

Magda's Cottage
In the middle of Pod Rozusetec is a 150 year old wooden cottage, belonging to my friend, Magda Jakubcova.

 

Magda in Cottage
Talk of the devil, here is Magda inside the cottage, drying clothes over the wood stove.
