Slovaka is a great choice for a cycling holiday. Beautiful scenery protected within no less than nine national parks. Springs and rivers tumble out of the Tatras mountains and flow south along green valleys flanked by densely forested hills to join the mighty Danube river.

Bratislava, the country’s charming capital complete with magnificent hilltop castle, sits beside the Danube and its wonderful old town is the perfect place to lose yourself in a maze of flagstone streets, small squares and alleyways.
