Slovakia's great outdoors



It's the last day of september and the weather is still blazing hot, while its cold and wet in England. I decide to make the most of it and head off to one of Slovakia's newest national parks, Mala Fatra, 30km east of a grey industrial town called Zilina. Established in 1988, it is Slovakias newest national park. Unlike the lower and higher Tatra mountain parks, Mala Fatra is small and most of it is accessible by foot. Its highest peak is around 1910 m.
