With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience all that Banska Stiavnica, 19 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here should be Trinity Square, Slovak Mining Museum - Jozef Kollar Gallery and Church of Ascenssion of the Virgin. Don’t forget about Bojnice either! Just 30 miles away, Bojnice Castle, ZOO Bojnice and Museum of Prehistoric Slovakia are must-sees here.
