Vršatské bradlá, Nature reserve in Ilava District, Slovakia.
The limestone cliffs of Vršatské bradlá rise to 898 meters, forming white needles and walls that stand above the forests of the White Carpathians.
The reserve contains the ruins of Vršatec Castle, which protected the Kingdom of Hungary's borders until its destruction during the Rákóczi uprising in 1708.
The natural formations within the reserve hold numerous fossils from ancient seas, providing scientists with valuable data about regional geological development.
A 6-kilometer nature trail starting in Vršatské Podhradie features 10 educational panels explaining the local ecology and heritage of the White Carpathians.
The limestone massif contains specific rock formations that serve as habitats for endangered plant species and rare regional fauna found only in this area.
