Stone Balls at Kloko?ovské skálie and Megonky

Slovakia

Attractions

Stone balls are a special natural phenomena in the Javorníky part of the Protected Landscape Area Kysuce - mysterious natural creations of sandstone and conglomerates whose origin has not been explained yet. They are viewed as a natural rarity in worldwide terms. The biggest one has the average of approximately 260 cm (102 in). Two locations with the occurrence of stone balls were declared to be protected in the category of natural reserve (NR Klokočovské skálie) and natural monument (NM Megonky).

Another natural phenomenon is a natural monument Korňanský ropný prameň (Korňa Oil Spring - for more information see among other attractions). It is a rare natural headspring of crude oil in Slovakia, accompanied with irregular headspring of natural gas - methane.

A site attractive for tourists - the village of Vychylovka with an open-air museum and unique narrow-gauge forest railway is situated in the eastern part of the PLA in the Beskydy mountains.
