District of Banská Bystrica: Ski lift Zahradiste - PARK SNOW Donovaly
Tucked between the Low Tatras and the Great Fatra, Donovaly is a place whose character is shaped by a mountain-pass landscape of forested slopes and open clearings. PARK SNOW Donovaly extends across the village in the Záhradište and Nová hoľa sectors, making the settlement one of Slovakia’s established mountain-sports centres. The Záhradište lift serves a gentler part of the resort near Donovaly’s hotels, services and compact built-up core. Before tourism became central to local life, the settlement was associated with forestry and charcoal production for the Banská Bystrica mining district. The road through Donovaly links Banská Bystrica with Ružomberok.

Slovakia is best known internationally for the High Tatras, whose granite summits form the country’s most celebrated mountain landscape. Gerlachovský štít, at 2,655 metres, is the highest peak in Slovakia and in the Carpathians. The Danube runs past Bratislava, where Bratislava Castle stands on a hill above the river, linking the capital to Central Europe’s major waterway. Beyond the cities, forests, karst terrain and small historic towns define much of the country. Slovakia’s long folk tradition is also represented by the fujara, a large shepherd’s flute recognised by UNESCO.
