Natural attractions
Orava has a very rich and dissected relief. The region is bordered on all sides by mountains: Kysuce Highlands, Orava Beskids, Western Tatras – Roháče, Little and Big Fatra, and Choč Mountains. These features create conditions for excellent relaxation that pleases the eye and soothes the soul. The region is also a heaven for mushroom pickers.
Brestovská cave
Brestovská cave is located in Western Tatras, near the Museum of Orava Village at Brestovská in Zuberec. It represents an underground part of an extensive hydrological system. At its bottom is a river with an active watercourse and seven siphons. The uniqueness of the cave lies at its centre, where there is no light.

Iodobromine saltwater stream, Oravská Polhora
Under the foothills of Babia hill, in the Slaná voda settlement, a unique mineral stream of iodobromine water flows. The unique healing water has been known since the 16th century. In the past, the water was used to treat skin, women’s internal illnesses and catarrhs of the upper respiratory tract. It took some years, but the stream of the precious salt-water was made accessible again. The new summer house and precious saltwater stand in the same spot as the original.
