“Malé Karpaty”, so the Slovaks call it the mountain ridge above the great mountain range of the Great Carpathian. Looking at the southern side of this mountain range, you discover a flourishing viticulture, but also places with castles full of history, along with hiking trails for hiking enthusiasts. When you start from Bratislava, after leaving the beech of Vinohrady behind you, a path of 2.5 km will bring you to your first destination, a 440 m high hill, where the television tower Kamzik (200 m high) will offer two opportunities: a revolving restaurant at 360 ° and an incredible view (up to the Austrian Alps, with clear skies). http://slovakia.travel/en/
When you arrive in the town of Modra (better in September, if you love good wine, especially in even numbered years), you will find that the party “Vinobranie” is really what it says: a river of wine, for everyone. In the main street of this small town (at number 92), you can stop in a great wine. If you’re not going to continue your journey into the Small Carpathians, and if you liked your stop at number 92, try another number: Sturova 108 (do not forget your experience at “Vinohradicky Dvor Modra”). http://www.folklorfest.sk/4577-den-modranskych-pivnic-modra-2016-13-rocnik/
