District of Stropkov
Tucked into the low, wooded foothills of the Low Beskids, Chotča is a place whose character is shaped by small-scale farming and dispersed settlement. This corner of the Prešov Region forms part of northeastern Slovakia’s Carpathian borderland, where rounded ridges frame a mosaic of fields, orchards and woodland. Chotča belongs to the Stropkov District, whose administrative centre is the town of Stropkov. The region’s cultural life reflects the long presence of both Slovak and Rusyn communities, a heritage carried through local customs and religious traditions. Rather than a dense urban centre, this is settled hill country where domestic plots and forest remain closely interwoven.

Tucked into the Ondava Highlands of northeastern Slovakia, the District of Stropkov is a place whose character is shaped by the wooded foothills of the Carpathians. Its terrain forms part of the Low Beskids, where valleys and low ridges lead north toward the Polish border. Stropkov is the district centre, with smaller communities dispersed through this upland countryside. Rusyn and Greek Catholic traditions remain an important part of the area's cultural identity. In Ladomirová, the wooden Greek Catholic Church of St Michael the Archangel, built in 1742, is included in UNESCO's Wooden Churches of the Slovak part of the Carpathian Mountain Area.

Carpathian ranges and river-cut valleys define much of the Prešov Region – forests, pastureland and upland settlements shape forestry, farming and outdoor tourism. In northeastern Slovakia, the region extends from the High Tatras towards the Pieniny on the Polish border, with the Poprad, Hornád, Torysa and Ondava among its important waterways. Its cultural heritage is equally distinctive: Bardejov’s medieval centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, while Spiš Castle recalls the historical importance of the Spiš area. Several UNESCO-listed wooden churches of the Slovak Carpathians also stand here. Explore related webcams around the Prešov Region for a broader impression of this part of Slovakia.

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.
