Gerlachovsky Stit

Reviewed By GJS_12 - Maidenhead, United Kingdom

We wanted to visit the High Tatras from the UK and do some hill walking & trekking. Specifically, we planned to hike Gerlachovsky stit (2655m) and Mt Rysy (2503m). We needed a guide and turned to Mountain ProGuiding. This proved an excellent choice. Our point of contact, by email and phone, was Katarina, who was efficient, courteous and professional throughout. She teamed us up with Peter for Gerlachovsky stit, and with Tibor for Mt Rysy. Both were excellent guides, with a great knowledge of the mountains. They set a pace that suited, read the weather excellently, kept us safe throughout, and got us to the top of both peaks (and down again) without drama. We really enjoyed both climbs which were very satisfying, and we owe a big thank you to Mountain ProGuiding for making it all happen.

On a trip to Europe, we decided to spend a night in Bratislava because my husband’s family immigrated to the US from the smaller villages outside of Bratislava around 1900. We don’t know much about his family, but records that we have show they were wine growers. We found out about the wine tour and thought we would try it to check out the area and learn some of the history of wine making in the region. When we arrived, Martin had set a wonderful table with treats prepared by his mother, and we tasted several wonderful wines at the table and also from the barrels in the wine cellar. We learned a lot about the area and the history of wine making. We also found out that Martin went to school with someone who had the same family name as ours. We are from northern Michigan, which is home to a growing wine industry. This tour reminded us a lot of the smaller wineries on the Leelanau Peninsula but with a much more personal touch and the depth of centuries of wine making.

Devin Castle

Located a few miles west of Bratislava. Devín Castle ranks among the most important archeological sites in Central Europe. Located at the banks of the Danube, where once the Danube and Amber Roads intersected, it watches over the confluence of the Danube and Morava rivers. Archeological research proves the area was settled about 7000 years ago and has since then been populated by one group or another, almost without interruption until today. Already during prehistory, it was a fortified center of power. During the Roman period the first several brick buildings were erected here. The first written source on Devín dates back to 864 and mentions a “Dowina Castle”. The Great Moravian period saw the erection of a church with colorful interior wall painting on castle grounds. Throughout the Middle Ages the Castle was an important border fortress, often passing from one noble family to another. In 1809 the Castle was intentionally demolished using explosives. In 1961 Devín Castle was declare

Devin Castle is a castle atop a hill at the confluence of the Danube and Morava rivers. Inside the castle is a sprawling landscape of gardens, pastures, fortification walls, staircases and courtyards in varying states of repair and disrepair. The climb up to the top of the tower and throughout the castle is perfectly safe though. Some of the castle ground buildings have been renovated and contain excellent exhibits of history of castle as well as a quick run through the history of Moravia up to the fall of the iron curtain in Czechoslovakia. The elevated position of the castle over the ground be made it an ideal position for observing the trade routes on the river. Views of Danube and Moravia, especially at the confluence of the two rivers, and city below are stunning. Makes a great half day visit from Bratislava.

Danubiana Meulensteen Art Museum

One of the most romatic modern art museums in Europe- the Danubiana Meulensteen Art Museum- is located less than 20 km south of Bratislava. It was founded by the Dutch collector and patron of the arts Gerard Meulensteen and the Slovak gallerist Vincent Polakovič. Since its opening in 2000, the museum has arranged numerous exhibitions of leading figures of the Slovak, European and world art scene, including Karel Appel, Sam Francis, Miroslav Cipár, Markus Prachensky, Ilona Keserü Ilona, Rudolf Sikora, Martín Chirino, Vladimír Popovič and other artists. The museum has attracted thousands of Slovak and foreign visitors as well as royal visits and leading political, social and above all cultural figures. Its unique location bordering on three countries, and sensitive integration with the surrounding nature and the River Danube provide visitors extraordinary views of exhibited artworks and of the flora and fauna unique to the peninsula of art in every season of the year. The adjoining sculpture park features the Works of a number of artists, among them El Lissitzky, Magdalena Abakanowicz, Jim Dine, Hans van de Bovenkamp, Jozef Jankovič, Arman, Jean- Claude Farhi, Vladimír Kompánek and Rudolf Uher. A magnificent view of Bratislava and the mighty Danube offer unforgettable experiences at sunset. After the completion of the extension, supported by the Government of the Slovak Republic, the museum is a new symbol of modern Bratislava, recommended by prestigious world guide books and social networking websites. See you by the River Danube, friends!

Danubiana is great gallery with wide art collection donated by Dutch phillantrope. It is especially worth taking a boat trip from Bratislava downtown to Danubiana. Boat ride takes around 1hour one way and entire visit can be organized in half day
