Description

The Slovak Karst (Slovenský kras) is one of the mountain ranges of the Slovenské Rudohorie Mountains in the Carpathians in southern Slovakia. It consists of a complex of huge karst plains and plateaus. On 1 March 2002 Slovak Karst National Park was declared. The park is defined by hilly gorges and woodlands with deciduous trees. It is the rocky, forested areas that attract many of the birds to the area. Birds that can be spotted in the Slovak Karst National Park include Cigogne noire, Bondrée apivore, Pic à dos blanc, Monticole de roche, Aigle impérial and Circaète Jean-le-Blanc.

Zádielska dolina (Zadiel Canyon), is a 4 km long gorge in the Slovak Karst with remarkable rock formations and small waterfalls, in places the cliffs are 300 metres tall. The narrowest part of the gorge is only 10 m wide. On a circular walk through the gorge and back over the Zádielská Plateau you can encounter birds like Aigle impérial, Cigogne noire, Cincle plongeur, Bergeronnette des ruisseaux, Coucou gris, Tourterelle des bois, Loriot d'Europe, Pie-grièche écorcheur, Rossignol philomèle, Gobemouche nain, Gobemouche à collier and more than 7 species of woodpecker!

Accès

Zádielska Valley is located in the southeastern part of the Slovak Karst just behind the tourist village of Zadiel. An educational 3,5 km trail through the gorge starts behind the village of Zadiel. But best is to make a circular walk (about 9 km long, see the map) where you first explore the gorge on the educational trail and then walk on and explore the Zádielská Plateau where the gorge is visible from above from several nice viewpoints. You can park near the entrance of the gorge or in the village of Zadiel.
