Červený Kláštor Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

Červený Kláštor is a picturesquely situated Carthusian and Camaldolese monastery in the Slovak part of Pieniny, right above the Dunajec River, opposite Sromowce Nižné. The building dates back to the 14th century and is famous for the figure of the monk Cyprian – a legendary herbalist and traveller. Today, there is a museum here, which allows you to learn about the life of the monks, old natural medicine and the history of the region. The monastery is located on a popular cycling route and is a great place to rest and explore. Access is possible both from the Polish side via a bicycle footbridge and from the Slovak side via an asphalt road.

Kotuńka Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Kotuńka Rock is a characteristic limestone rock formation located in the Dunajec River just before entering Szczawnica. It is perfectly visible from the road and is one of the recognizable points in the area. Nearby, the Grajcarek River flows into the Dunajec River, and behind the rock begins the Pienińska Road leading to the border crossing. There is a legend associated with Kotuńka, according to which the devil carried a boulder to the castle in the Pieniny Mountains, but lost it when a rooster suddenly crowed. In the years 1875-1912, a sculpture of a highlander greeting visitors stood on it, which was re-erected in 1997. The name of the rock comes from its shape - according to a description from 1869, "it emerges from the water like a cunning cat on the lookout".
