Karst Caves and Sinkholes

Blatnica Valley (Slovak: Blatnická dolina) is a karst valley about 8 kilometers long in the Greater Fatra range of Slovakia, in the Zilina Region's Martin District, reachable by dirt road from the village of Blatnica. Most of the valley is covered in dense forest, with limestone and dolomite rock exposed in places, and its best known feature is a rock window in its lower reaches; climbing routes to the peaks Ostra and Drienok start from the valley floor.
