Region of Trenčín

Shaped by the Váh river corridor and routes through north-western Slovakia, the Region of Trenčín developed into an administrative region of broad valleys, wooded uplands and historic towns. Trenčín, its regional centre, is dominated by Trenčín Castle above the river; the rock below preserves a Latin inscription from the Roman era. The White Carpathians form part of the western borderland, while the Strážov Mountains and Považský Inovec give the interior a more rugged profile. Spa traditions, folk culture and the Váh’s settlement corridor remain central to the region’s identity. See how the Region of Trenčín fits within north-western Slovakia by browsing webcams nearby.
