Tips for trips:

The cottage is located only 200 meters from the hiking trail to the hill Magurka (1,107 m above sea level), which provides an unusual view of the Orava Dam, Horná Orava and the surrounding mountains. Magurka is very easily recognizable thanks to the 80 meter high tower on the top, which serves as a television transmitter.

Another nearby attraction is "Rio de Klin" (7km from the cottage), it is the tallest statue of Christ in Slovakia (a copy of the statue from Rio de Janeiro), which is 9.5 meters high and is located on the hill Grapa at an altitude of 686 m above sea level, from where there is a beautiful view of the Orava dam and Roháče.

For hiking lovers we recommend a more challenging climb to Babia hora (1723 m above sea level), a hiking trail leads from Oravská Polhora (18 km from the cottage). Babia Hora is the northernmost lookout point in Slovakia and the highest peak in the Orava Beskydy Mountains. On the way to this hill you can also visit the famous Hviezdoslav Horárna.

In summer, you can try various water sports such as canoeing, paddling or pedal boats on the Orava Reservoir. In winter you can ski in Ski Krušetnica (11km), Orava Snow Oravská Lesná (27km) or in Ski Park Kubínska hoľa (35km).

The nearest water parks can be found in Oravice (Meander Thermal Oravice), 34 km from the cottage and water park in the Polish village of Chocholow (Aquapark Chocholowskie Termy), 37 km away from the cottage.

We also recommend visiting the picturesque Slanica Island of Art, which is a remnant of the flooded village of Slanica, which disappeared under the water of the Orava Dam and only the hill with a Baroque church has been preserved. On this island you can get acquainted with the history of the Orava dam and flooded villages and also see the expositions of traditional folk art. The boat to this island runs from May to September, the port is located 2 km from our cottage.

If you have enough time, be sure not to miss Orava Castle (23km), which dates from the 13th century and is one of the most beautiful (and scariest) castles in Slovakia, where the German classic silent horror film Nosferatu from 1922, the first film about Dracula.
