SLOVAKIA ... Wild heart of Europe
Suchá dolina (The Dry valley) natural reservation - the valley divides Western Tatras mountains from Chočské vrchy ones and cuts deeply through the limestone slopes of Ostrá (1764m) and Holica (1340m) peaks. The main subject of the protection is virgin mountain forest with rare species of flora and wild animals such as wolf, lynx and brown bear. The valley is still not officially accessible for tourists. The lower part of the valley is linked by old paved road, but upper part is very wild and hard accessible, linked only by distinct animal paths.
The valley ...        The water ...      The wood ...
