In September 2019, we trekked through Kysuce, a protected area of Slovakia. Our three-day long journey, most of the time imitating the PL/SK border, started at Oščadnica (near Čadca, Slovakia) and ended at Stará Bystrica (Slovakia). How was it? Here is a brief photo report.
Feasting her eyes on splendid view! Next time, please put on even brighter t-shirt :-D
A cross at Bendoszka Wielka (1144m a.s.l.), Poland.
View from Bendoszka Wielka.
Spot for gathering believers.
A nice meadow where you can take a nap. Bendoszka Wielka with the cross in the distance.
A peak called Bania/Priehybok (1128m), if not mistaken. That further meadow, that is the place where we snoozed.
On the Rycerzowa mountain (1225m). On the right, there is the Rycerzowa Hostel where we stayed. Great chalet in the middle of nowhere!
A hot dish finally! A specialty of almost every chalet - fried cheese with (no fries) potatoes and some garnish. No tapped beer, only bottled one, Żywiec then!
Sunset, Rycerzowa.
Next day, full of energy, new adventures and nice weather. Marching on!

Passed.
At Rača.
Chilling out at a cable-way station, Rača.
Inside a little wooden chapel at Zborov nad Bystricou (Slovakia). Dedicated to st. Júda Tadeáš, a protector of all losers, loosely translated :-D
The chapel.
Caught in deep sleep!
Panorama from the mountain Veľká Rača / Wielka Racza (1236m). There is also a cross and plenty of blueberries!
Still enjoying the views.
The sun goes down.
At Wielka Racza Hostel. What’s for dinner? Well, a traditional Polish quick one: zapiekanka :-D (baguette, mushrooms, cheese and ... anything). I like it though! And of course, a beer, Tyskie as no beer on tap.
A lookout-tower at Bobovec, Stará Bystrica (Slovakia). Nice views, free entry.
View from the tower.
Wider view from the tower.
Same tower, different direction.
At Stará Bystrica with the Bobovec peak (~720m) and the tower.
An astronomical clock; finished in 2009. Stará Bystrica.

Photos did not undergo any post-editing. If you enjoyed reading this, stay tuned as more cool stuff to come up soon. See you on the trail ;-)
