Perfect route. So on the gravel/mountain border. The silence in the hills is deafening.
Good road quality and a really pleasant experience.

Orava Forest Railway

Highlight • Structure

Nice railway, but they don't take bicycles, so if you want to transfer, then without a bicycle.

There is quite a steep climb here, and after a few tens of km, it is better to go around with a longer route, but with a smaller incline.

Highlight • Settlement

Small place worth seeing in the traditional Kysuce landscape.
At the market square with an astronomical clock and a beautiful church.
