Muránska planina, National park in District of Brezno, Slovakia.

The Muránska planina spans across 21,318 hectares of core territory and features limestone formations, dolomite cliffs, and over 300 caves throughout its landscape.

Established in October 1997, the national park contains the ruins of Muráň Castle, a 13th-century royal fortress positioned at 935 meters above sea level.

The park territory includes multiple sheep farms where visitors can experience traditional cheese making and taste local dairy products during summer months.

Visitors can explore 300 kilometers of marked hiking trails connecting various natural attractions, with primary access points through the villages of Muráň and Závadka.

The park contains the only operating rack railway between Pohronska Polhora and Tisovec, preserving 19th-century engineering for modern transportation needs.
