Falcon Valley

(Sokolia dolina)

Sokolia dolina inspires great respect because it is the most exposed gorge in the Slovak Paradise. It belongs to the most beautiful gorges, thanks to its massive rock formations with characteristic waterfalls. The highest waterfall of the Slovak Paradise - Závojový vodopád (78 m) is located here. An approximately 80-meter-long system of ladders, bridges and risers leads around the Veil Waterfall, which makes this transition one of the most exciting experiences of the national park. The gorge is passable in one direction only. The best starting point is Čingov, from which you can reach the beginning of the gorge along the hiking trail in less than an hour. The second variant is Podlesok, from which you can reach the mouth of the Kyseľ via Kláštorisko and further along the valley of the Biele Potok to the beginning of the gorge.
