Join us on a journey through history, art, wine, and nature in the Little Carpathian region. We begin in Bratislava, passing through the charming towns of Svätý Jur, Pezinok, and Modra. Our first stop is Elesko Winery, where we will enjoy a glass of fine wine while admiring an inspiring exhibition at the Zoya Museum & Gallery.
Next, we travel into the Little Carpathian Mountains to explore the Červený Kameň Castle near Častá. This impressive medieval fortress holds centuries of history within its well-preserved interiors. A guided tour will take us through its fascinating halls, while the surrounding nature offers breathtaking views.
From there, we continue to Doľany, where we will visit Vína z mlyna, a unique winery set in an old watermill (available on weekends). Here, we will taste exceptional local wines, learning about traditional winemaking methods. The cozy, rustic atmosphere of the mill makes this a truly special experience.
We then move to Smolenice, where we will enjoy a tasting of Medovina, a delightful honey wine with deep historical roots. As we sip, we will take in the tranquil Bee Garden and admire the majestic Smolenice Castle. This peaceful and scenic stop perfectly blends nature, history, and authentic Slovak flavors.
To conclude our journey, we will have dinner at the Rock Restaurant, where motorbike lovers can explore a small exhibition. Alternatively, we can enjoy a traditional Slovak meal at a Koliba in Senec, experiencing the region’s rich culinary heritage. If time allows, we can take a short walk through Trnava, known for its historical charm, before returning to Bratislava.
