Reviewed By smallhausen1 - Bratislava, Slovakia
Do not expect some wonderful views or never-seen-before sceneries. This is an adventure trio where you can test yourself (and observe others). Pros: - Once you decide to pass it, you will do it - You will find that you can do more than you expect - You will face wild nature just few minute5of drive from standard resort Cons: - Don't try it in winter for the first time
