Horský park, Protected natural area in Old Town, Bratislava, Slovakia.
Horský Park is a protected natural area in Old Town with dense forest and marked walking paths throughout its grounds. The space blends wooded sections with clearings where visitors can rest and move about freely.
The space began as a remote forest area in the late 1800s and was deliberately developed into an accessible park for the city. This transformation brought green space within reach of people living in the urban center.
The park hosts an outdoor gallery space that shows contemporary Slovak art works among the trees. Visitors walking through can discover different pieces placed naturally within the forest setting.
The park is accessible on foot from the city center and reachable by public transport within minutes. Access is open year-round with plenty of paths for exploring without special equipment.
The park protects natural rock formations that date back to the 1800s and remain largely untouched. These geological features reveal the natural composition of the area beneath the city.
