Súľovská tiesňava


Súľovská tiesňava - a landmark of the Hradnianka creek in Sulovské vrchy in Slovakia, between the villages of Jablonové (in the northwest) and Súľov-Hradná (in the south-east). It is located in the cadastral area of ​​the first village.

Geology and morphology

The breakthrough of about 1 km was due to the hollow of the Hradnianka River across the ridge of Sulovská Skála, just west of the former village of Súľov. The ridge is built of limestone conglomerates, whose structure is visible in numerous rock walls and turrets, rising directly above the breakthrough to a height of 50-100 m. The width of the gorge is from about 30 to 150 m, and its bottom lies at an altitude of approx. 350-360 m above sea level It is located in the trough of the stream and the road from Predmier to Súľova-Hradna. More in the middle of the breakthrough to Hradnianka is its left-bank tributary - Čierny potok. Tourism

In the extension of the gorge is the tourist hotel "Chata Súľov", and below it a small car park was built below it. On the opposite side of the road there is a hiking trail with a small gazebo: there are seven marked hiking trails in the most interesting parts of Sulovský Skály and three cycling routes. Here is also the beginning and end of the circular educational path leading to Súľov Castle. Nature conservation

The whole breakthrough lies within the boundaries of the Protected Landscape Area Strážovské vrchy. Eastern, the most rocky part of the gorge, lies within the borders of Sulovske Skała nature reserve. The slopes of the second part of the ravine are protected in the Sulovská Skála (eastern) reserve and in the Súľovský hrádok (western) reserve. Bibliography
