Miloš Janoška, a teacher and an enthusiastic promoter of hiking and tourism, wrote about Liptovský Mikuláš in the first Slovak tour guide in 1932:

“Liptovský Sv. Mikuláš is located in the center of the Liptov region. It lies in a wide picturesque valley surrounded by smaller hills, followed by high mountains of the Low Tatras in the south and Liptovské hole (the Western Tatras) in the north.“

The nature is rarely as generous as it was in case of Liptov with its high peaks and deep valleys, beautiful flora, diverse fauna, caves, bright streams and rivers or mineral springs. This is what makes Liptov one of the most sought after holiday destinations in Slovakia. Tourists can feel the energy of the mountains and explore hundreds of kilometers of marked hiking trails, feel the positive effects of thermal water in four water parks, ski to their heart’s content on more

than seventy kilometers of slopes or learn something new in museums, galleries and monuments

of folk architecture. Liptov offers so many opportunities that

everyone can enjoy their time here.

Liptovský Mikuláš is proud of its history and many personali-ties that formed and still form his spiritual wealth. Let yourself be tempted to wander around the historical center. Breathe in its peaceful atmosphere and enjoy the architecture and the majestic view of the surround-ing mountains. St. Nicholas Church was the basis around which the town was slowly and gradually formed. The heart of the town, the square Námestie osloboditeľov, is surrounded by continuous lines of former townhouses. Here you can find the Pongrács’s Mansion, which belonged to the noble Pongrác family for centuries, the Illešházy’s Mansion and the majestic County House.

More than 700 years of history Other architectural monuments can be found within a walking distance from the main square: the Evangelical Church and the old evangelic vicarage, the synagogue or the school building of Gymnázium M. M. Hodžu. The town holds many events, such as exhibitions, concerts, theatrical performances, readings and many others. Various cultural events take place in the streets several times a year. Both the town’s residents and tourists do appreciate the rich cultural program of Mikulášske leto (Mikuláš’s summer), Stoličné dni (Days of County) and Mikulášsky jarmok (Mikuláš’s fair). Many personalities are connected with Liptovský Mikuláš. Try to count the names immortalized on the fountain Metamorphosis in the historical center and you will find out that there are exactly seventy names. These are just some of the names of those who were born in Mikuláš.

Enjoying sports and relaxation

The town is closely tied to sports. Many great sportsmen grew up in Liptovský Mikuláš and they continue to represent the good name of the town and Slovakia in water slalom, ice hockey, body building, bicross...Each year the town organizes water slalom races. The best known are the International Liptov Slalom Races and the International Tatran Slalom Races. They take place at the

Water Slalom Area of Ondrej Cibák. The Olympic winners Michal Martikán and Elena Kaliská also train here. Even recreational sportsmen can try water slalom here. In the Water Slalom Area you can find a sports agency which offers various less traditional sports besides rafting, such as archery, adventure golf, paintball and airsoft, and even a kayak school. The sight of whitewater, a lot of bridges above the water and benches make it also an ideal place for relaxation. The town offers a large dose of sports as well: squash, tennis, bowling, skateboarding, rock climbing, fitness, go-karts and a swimming pool. After the challenging sports adventures you will certainly appreciate a good rest or relaxation. Only 4 km away from the town center is the biggest year-around open water park in Central Europe – Tatralandia. Tatralandia offers a lot of fun and relaxation in water, water tubes and slides, a Celtic sauna world, a wellness center and the recently constructed Tropical Paradise – in the form of a huge mussel with air temperature around 30°C and real tropical flora. The complex also includes 14 swimming pools with salty, thermal or clear water (9 of them accessible year-around) with a lot of massages and fun attractions, a water bar and from the diving pool you can observe a coral reef – colorful fish and corals living in their separate pool. You can enjoy fun on 28 water tubes and slides (7 are available year-around).

Liptovský Mikuláš lies in the heart of Liptov, embraced by the mountains of the Low and Western Tatras and Chočské vrchy. Thanks to their peaks, valleys and the beautiful nature, Liptov became a paradise for hikers, tourists and skiers. Another of the region’s riches comes from the depths of the earth – several water parks were built on thermal springs. Everyone can choose from the various possibilities offered – relaxing walks in beautiful valleys, long hikes to peaks with a great view of the countryside and challenging hikes to altitudes of more than 2000m.If you like bike-touring then you can choose one of several routes in the Low or Western Tatras or around the dam of Liptovská Mara, or you can also try some adrenaline routes in the Bike Park in Jasná. 15 km from Liptovský Mikuláš you can find the biggest ski center of Slovakia – Jasná Low Tatras, where starting with the winter season 2012/2013 the centers Chopok Sever (North) and Chopok Juh (South) are connected by cable car lines. So the skiers can enjoy more than 45 km of groomed ski slopes, 29 cable cars and ski lifts with the capacity to transport nearly 31 000 persons every hour. In the vicinity of the town there are also several smaller but popular ski centers: Žiarce – Pavčina Lehota, Opalisko – Závažná Poruba, Javorovica – Liptovský Ján, Dolinky – Žiar.The water parks of Liptov are known for great relaxation and endless fun they provide. A lot of pools with hot thermal and clear heated water, rides on water tubes and slides, saunas, massages, catering and accommodating facilities and awe-inspiring view of the mountains make them one of the most sought-after places to visit on holidays.In the vicinity of the town you can find TATRALANDIA and 17 km from Liptovský Mikuláš, in Bešeňová, there is the water park GINO Paradise. If you look for more privacy, you should visit Lúčky AQUA VITAL Park, surrounded by proud mountains. The offer of water parks is complemented by summer thermal swimming pools of the Sorea Máj Hotel in Jánska dolina valley.The look of the Liptov region changed in the years 1965 – 1975, when the Liptovská Mara water reservoir was built to protect the area from floods and generate electric energy. Its smooth surface is occasionally disturbed by boats of fishermen, yachtsmen and tourists. Tourists come mostly to the northern bank where they enjoy their holiday in Mara Camping near the village Liptovský Trnovec.

Picturesque LiptovLiptov has unexpected stores of beauty hidden in caves beneath the ground. There are four of them accessible to the public – in Demänovská dolina valley you can find Demänovská jaskyňa slobody (Demänovská Cave of Liberty) and Demänovská ľadová jaskyňa (Demänovská Ice Cave), in Jánska dolina valley is Stanišovská jaskyňa (Stanišovská Cave) and in Važec there is Važecká jaskyňa (Važecká Cave). There are also charming displays of folk architecture. Take a look at the elegant houses of our ancestors in the Museum of the Lip-tov Village in Pribylina and in the Vlkolínec settlement, which was added to the UNESCO list of world cultural heritage. A water mill can be visited in Kvačianska dolina valley and in the village Svätý Kríž there is a majestic wooden church – the biggest articular church in Central Europe. A few kilometers from Liptovský Mikuláš there is a legendary place – the hill Úložisko, which was inhabited by the Celts. Today the secrets of this place are revealed in the open-air museum Havrá-nok. You can find it near the Liptovská Mara water reservoir.
