The Liptovská Mara reservoir is located in the magical region of Liptov. Embraced by the Nízke Tatry and Západné Tatry, between the towns of Liptovský Mikuláš and Ružomberok, it is among the bodies of water with the best location for spending a holiday.

It is also known as the Liptovské Sea. It is the second-largest dam in Slovakia and offers holidaymakers countless ways to enjoy their free time. Truly everyone will find something to enjoy, regardless of age, gender, or fitness level.

The Liptovská Mara dam was artificially built between 1969 and 1975. Prior to construction, 13 villages had to be relocated, totaling more than 4,000 residents. Important monuments were also moved, which you can now find, for example, in the Múzeum liptovskej dediny in Pribylina. The reservoir currently floods an area of 27 km², and its main purpose is flood protection. Thanks to its excellent location, however, it is a popular recreational area, especially during the summer season.

In the village of Liptovský Trnovec, you will find a campsite and a beach accessible to the public for a small fee. In addition to swimming and catching a tan on the grassy areas right by the lake shore, you can take advantage of a varied range of water sports throughout the summer. Water tricycles, jet skis, or paddleboards, which you can rent at MaraFUN, are very popular. You can see almost the entire coastline during a sightseeing boat tour.

The surroundings of Liptovská Mara also entice visitors to explore other places and attractions. Not far from Mara, at the foot of the Úložisko hill, lies the unique Archeoskanzen Havránok. The trip here can easily be managed by families with children or active seniors. You will learn about the history of the Celts and see what their original dwelling and sanctuary looked like.

If you are drawn more toward adrenaline, you can enjoy it to your heart's content at the Tatralandia aquapark or at Hurricane Factory Tatralandia. For culture and good food, head to the town of Liptovský Mikuláš. And for nature, you can set off in any direction.

Discover numerous hiking trails, enjoy breathtaking views from Sivý vrch, and reward yourself with fresh air and a perfect feeling of freedom on the peak of Veľký Choč.

The zoo is home to more than 400 animals belonging to nearly 120 species. These are individuals that cannot live in the wild and require human assistance. You will find domestic animals here such as sheep or donkeys, native Slovak wild species like ground squirrels and marmots, as well as exotic predators such as pumas and tigers. Both children and adults will be enchanted by the birds; you can spend time in an aviary with tame parrots, and the staff will demonstrate the free flight of birds of prey.

To the delight of children, the zoo also features kangaroos and monkeys, and a unique attraction is the exhibition of tame foxes, where you can see not only our native red fox, but also species like the Arctic fox. Many animals can be fed or photographed with, and touched in the presence of a guide. ZOO Kontakt likewise offers regular guided talks at individual animal enclosures.

Part of the zoo is the Butterfly Garden, which also serves as an oasis of flowers. Here you will see 3,000 exotic butterflies fluttering around. In the butterfly nursery, you can watch these beautiful insects hatch from their chrysalises or take their first flight. If you do not suffer from phobias, the terrariums with lizards and snakes will also catch your interest.

The admission price to ZOO Kontakt also includes entry to Tatrapolis, a park of metal miniatures featuring the world's most famous structures. If that is still not enough, children can enjoy a wave swinger carousel, horse and pony rides, a train ride, or a mirror maze.

Stop for a moment in a reality that will literally turn you upside down! The Dom hore nohami in Liptovský Mikuláš is an original attraction that is guaranteed to entertain both young and old. Accessible year-round and fully furnished, this little house stands "roof down" and its interior feels as if everything has been turned inside out. It is located in the immediate vicinity of a well-known water park, making it easy to include in your family trip itinerary. The original intention to cope with frustration over bureaucracy transformed into a popular and highly sought-after place by tourists.

What awaits you inside the Dom hore nohami?

Inside the house you will find everything “ordinary”. A kitchen, dining table, bathroom, and children's room, but in reverse.

The attraction is not large, but thanks to its originality and visual effect, it is one of the most popular "Instagram" spots in the region and you certainly should not miss it during your travels through Liptov.

Visitor information

This original and playful attraction is an ideal choice for families with children, couples, groups of friends, or school trips looking for an unusual experience and fun snapshots for joint photos. The tour itself takes about 20 to 30 minutes and is physically undemanding, although due to the sloped floors and optical illusions, people more sensitive to balance changes may experience mild dizziness. Due to its specific construction and tilted interior, however, the place is not barrier-free, meaning that entry is not suitable for visitors with reduced mobility and movement with a wheelchair or baby stroller is not possible, and entry with a dog is also not recommended due to the nature of the space.

Access, services, and surroundings

The Dom hore nohami is located by the main road in Liptovský Mikuláš, just a few minutes from the well-known water park. Access is easy both by car and on foot, and there is a parking lot (paid) in the surrounding area.

It brings its visitors a beautiful view of the surrounding nature, which is dominated by Liptovská Mara and the peaks of Vysoké Tatry.

Wandering through the tangle of corridors becomes a real adrenaline experience after a few minutes. They say the cleverest visitors find their way out in an incredible 10 minutes. Do you dare to test your strength against them? If you do not belong among people with a refined sense of direction, do not despair. You will weave your way out of the circular maze in approximately 30 minutes, just like most visitors. However, if you regularly look for your car in department store parking lots, set aside more time for visiting Labyrinth. Yet there is no need to worry. If you do not find your way out even within two hours, the system will alert the staff and they will locate you.

Legend says that the first labyrinth was built by the legendary Daedalus for King Minos. The task of the stone structure with intricate corridors and staircases was to contain the terrible Minotaur. Daedalus built his project so perfectly that no one who entered ever found their way out again. In Kruhové bludisko Labyrinth, no Minotaur awaits you, so feel free to venture out for night wandering as well. They will gladly lend you a light on site.

On the Háj hill, which rises to an altitude of 748 m a.s.l. above the town of Liptovský Mikuláš, you will find Lesopark Háj-Nicovô. It is a popular cultural and recreational zone and a frequent visiting spot for locals, as its summit offers a beautiful panoramic view. You will see the Vysoké Tatry with the unmistakable Kriváň, the Západné Tatry, and the Chočské vrchy on the northwestern side. The western side reveals the Veľká Fatra, while the southern side reveals the ridge of the Nízke Tatry. The highlight of the view is an exceptional vista of Liptovský Mikuláš and the Liptovská Mara water reservoir.

The dominant feature of the summit is the military memorial and cemetery Háj-Nicovô. More than 1,350 fallen heroes rest here. Their graves are arranged along the sides of a monumental staircase. Right by the bottom steps are sculptures, one symbolizing peace and victory, the other depicting an oath to the battle flag. After reaching the top step, you arrive directly in front of the centerpiece of the memorial, a pylon with several reliefs and a five-pointed star at its top.

You can reach the top of Háj along the paved Cesta generála R. Kunu road, which is also known as Cesta hrdinov. Passanger cars and bicycles are permitted on it, but you will also find pedestrians and often mothers with strollers there. In winter, the road is not maintained. However, a forest route via the Príroda a krajina educational trail, which copies the Vojenská história trail, is very popular among locals. In addition to walking, exploring nature, and learning about history, there is much more to do at Háj. You can play sports or spend time with children at an original wooden playground, and you can also find the first Slovak eco-friendly clay target shooting range here.

The Príroda a krajina educational trail is 1.3 km long, has an elevation gain of 140 m, and is marked with a green hiking trail marker. The ascent to Háj via this trail represents a walk along a deep-sea floor. More than 45 million years ago, Liptov was submerged under the sea, as evidenced by various fossils. In the insect hotel, you can admire the fascinating world of insects; however, on the way to it, you will first pass through a mixed forest with a rare specimen, a black poplar that is over 100 years old. The end of the trail is a sweet finishing touch, as there are stairs of time located there. They show a cross-section of the geological bedrock of the Liptovská kotlina basin, going back to 460 million years ago.

The Vojenská história educational trail is 0.47 km long and is a flat walk along a red hiking trail marker. Educational boards inform about troops and weapons, as well as the subsequent restoration of the devastated territory, as bloody battles of World War II took place here. The memorial area, to which the educational trail leads, was made accessible in 1961 along with the memorial and cemetery. It is the final resting place of battle victims, and since 2018, it has also served as a Pomník novodobým vojnovým veteránom (Monument to Modern War Veterans). This stands as a tribute to soldiers who died while fulfilling duty assignments in foreign missions and operations.

A unique creation of nature, Bešeňovské travertíny, represent interesting limestone formations that were formed by the precipitation of mineral and thermal springs. They are located in the Liptov region, near the village of Bešeňová, in the district of Liptovský Mikuláš. Beautiful travertine mounds, cascades, and other uniquely coloured formations stretch across an area of 3.18 ha. The play of colours in these unique natural phenomena transitions from almost white, through yellow and orange, to red or brown. Mineral water still flows down the travertine cascades, adding a beautiful shine to this natural spectacle.

Bešeňová is one of the few places in Slovakia and even in Europe that can boast the occurrence of freshwater limestone, or travertine. This is formed by the precipitation of water with a high calcium carbonate content under suitable temperature conditions. And since the water in Bešeňová contains magnesium, sulphur, and iron in addition to calcium, Bešeňovský travertín attracts visitors not only with its interesting formations, but also with its beautiful colours. The travertine field is located a few hundred metres north of the village and consists of four separate units: Červená terasa, Kaplnka, Bazén, and Biela terasa. Its easy accessibility makes it a great day-trip location for anyone who enjoys unusual natural phenomena. Tourists, active seniors, and families with children alike enjoy coming here.

The beauty of the travertine captivated not only visitors to Liptov, but architects as well. Polished travertine slabs adorn the Univerzita Komenského building in Bratislava, as well as the Palác národov in Geneva, Switzerland. It was precisely the golden-yellow travertine that was used for these buildings, which you can admire in its natural beauty at the edge of the quarry, in the Kaplnka section. Bešeňovský travertín was also used in buildings in many other European countries. We can mention, for example, France, Germany, or Belgium. This indicates that we can undoubtedly call this natural phenomenon of Liptov world-class.

Liptov repeatedly convinces us with its natural beauties that it is well worth spending a holiday in this region. If you decide to take a trip to Bešeňovské travertíny, be sure to combine it with a visit to the nearby Archeoskanzen Havránok, one of the most significant archaeological sites in Liptov, or with a swim in the extremely popular Vodný park Bešeňová.

Kúpele Lúčky spa is located in the village of the same name, in the picturesque area below the Tatras, in the Liptov region. It is situated where the Ráztočná dolina valley meets the Liptovská kotlina basin, beneath the majestic Chočské vrchy mountains. A quiet environment full of greenery, consisting mainly of spruce forests, clean air, and the healing power of a natural mineral spring—this is a great combination for which visitors from all over Slovakia travel here. The spa helps patients with indicated oncological diseases, digestive system diseases, metabolic and endocrine gland disorders, non-tuberculous respiratory diseases, nervous system diseases, musculoskeletal system diseases, gynecological diseases, and occupational diseases.

The history of Kúpele Lúčky dates back to 1712. The spa industry built upon folk healing. Life at the springs in Lúčky began to flourish around 1760. To provide entertainment alongside treatment, an inn with a stable was built here. In 1864, Lúčky was rebuilt into a spa house. In 1872, the spa gained a new owner, who ensured its comprehensive reconstruction. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, Kúpele Lúčky was visited by international clientele from the USA, Romania, Bohemia, Tsarist Russia, Vienna, and Budapest. In 1912, it applied for inclusion in the list of medicinal spas of the Kingdom of Hungary.

After World War II, the spa was nationalized. The 1960s were marked by the beginning of new construction. Despite building new beds, their number was still insufficient due to enormous interest in treatment. Therefore, new spa houses, including social areas, were added. The balneotherapy department received its current form after a reconstruction in 1998. The modern AQUA – VITAL Park Lúčky was built in 2008.

To provide high-quality treatment, a qualified team is needed in addition to the gift of nature in the form of a mineral spring.

Balneotherapy is suitably complemented by tub baths in mineral carbonated water, mineral pearl baths, whirlpool baths, and additive mineral baths. Paraffin and peat—peloids—are used for wraps.

Electrotherapy is also utilized in Lúčky. Electrotherapy consists of diathermy, diatron, diadynamic currents, endomed, TENS, magnetotherapy, biolaser, therapeutic ultrasound, and galvanotherapy. Light therapy uses bioptron, mountain sun, sanotherm, and solux. Other procedures include intrador, physical education, swimming in the pool, psychorelaxation, autotraction, inhalation, oxygen therapy, and vitamin therapy. The spa also offers premium beauty treatments using natural cosmetics.
