With some awesome day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience everything that Banska Bystrica, 18 miles away, has to offer. Golf and Country Club Hron should be high up on your list here. Museum of the Slovak National Uprising and The Clock Tower are awesome attractions too. Don’t skip Bojnice either! Just 20 miles away, Bojnice Castle, ZOO Bojnice and Museum of Prehistoric Slovakia are non-negotiable stops here.
