Dolné diery, Mountain gorge trail in Malá Fatra Mountains, Slovakia.
Dolné diery is a mountain gorge trail that winds through Kalkstone formations with flowing water and small waterfalls. The path narrows significantly, requiring metal ladders and wooden footbridges to cross over streams and rocky obstacles.
The path through the gorge was first cleared in the early 1900s to allow locals and visitors to navigate the narrow canyon. Metal ladders and bridges were gradually added over the decades to make the route safer and more stable.
The gorge holds a special place in local outdoor traditions and remains a favorite route for regional hikers and climbers. You can see how the community values these natural passages by the care taken with the metal structures and wooden elements along the way.
The trail is best visited during warmer months when rocks are dry and water levels are lower. Wear sturdy hiking shoes with good grip, as surfaces can become slippery and wet even in shaded sections.
At certain points the rock walls narrow so much that you can touch both sides with your arms spread out. These moments of extreme confinement create an unusual sensation of actually moving inside the mountain itself.
