Manínska tiesňava - Považská Bystrica photos

Maninska tiesnava the most narrow canyon in Slovakia that lies near the town Považská Bystrica in a local part Považská Teplá in Stražov Mountains . The characteristic of this canyon are wild rock formations, steep rocks, rich flora and various fauna. The narrow valley of the brook Manínsky potok is squeezed between rock faces, which are in places as much as 400 m tall. As a matter of fact, the valley consists of two smaller narrows separated by a small basin. The width of the narrowest places hardly suffices for a passage of cars.
