Unlike our road trip in Czech Republic , where we were coming from, we had very good weather and were able to go hiking in magical places.
Between small traditional villages, castles and hikes β¦ find here the details of our travel itinerary in Slovakia by van and some useful information for vanlife in Slovakia. We start our road trip in Slovakia with its capital, Bratislava. Cradled by the Danube and overlooked by Bratislava Castle , we really liked getting lost in it. We stayed there for 2 days, which seems good to us. We are parked in a free car park along the Danube and near a park on the other side of downtown Bratislava.
We have a beautiful view of the city. During the day, there are people but it is quite calm at night. We are 15 mins from the center on foot cross the Stary Most bridge and about ten minutes south-west from the Aupark shopping center with toilets and sockets. Its houses are classified as historic monuments , and when you arrive, you can better understand why.
Its typical houses are painted with geometric white patterns which are patterns they use in their traditional fabrics and clothing. We spend a pleasant afternoon there and have a picnic on the outskirts of the village. But we chose to drive a few kilometers north to sleep in nature close to a small stream, without any service. During our trip we met a Polish who told us about the Tatras Mountain, bordering both Poland and Slovakia. So we decided to go hiking in this national park, and we really loved it.
We would even have liked to have planned more time there to discover other trails. Here an overview of the landscapes of our Tatras Mountain hike in Slovakia. Nevertheless there must be very nice nature spot in the area. The weather is nice, we take this opportunity to continue hikes in Slovakia.
