With some terrific road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore everything that Zvolen, 25 miles away, has to offer. Explore the area beginning with Ludovita Stura Park, Vigsassky Zamok and Borova Hora Arboretum. Situated 30 miles away, Banska Stiavnica is another popular tourist destination. If you drop by, be sure to check out Trinity Square, Slovak Mining Museum - Jozef Kollar Gallery and Church of Ascenssion of the Virgin.
