Zoborská lesostep, Nature reserve in Nitra, Slovakia.
The protected area spans 23 hectares of limestone terrain with meadows, oak forests, and karst formations on the southwestern slopes of Zobor mountain.
The reserve gained national protection status on March 27, 1952, becoming an integral part of the Ponitrie Protected Landscape Area conservation system.
The area contains Svorad's Cave, connected to local heritage, and features educational trails that inform visitors about the local ecosystem.
Visitors can access the reserve through marked blue, green, and yellow paths that run along its perimeter near the Specialized Hospital of St. Svorad.
The reserve hosts the endemic Slovak pennycress plant, which scientists first identified here and exists only in one other location worldwide.
