Lačnovský kaňon, Protected national nature reserve in Branisko mountains, Slovakia

The Lačnov Canyon stretches for 2 kilometers through limestone formations, featuring steep rock walls and cascading waters of the Lačnovský creek.

The national nature reserve received official protection status in 2004, preserving its geological formations and natural ecosystems for future generations.

Local folklore includes the Kamenná Baba rock formation, resembling a woman with a child, which stands as a central feature of regional tales.

Visitors can access the canyon through a marked trail from Lipovce village, equipped with metal stairs and chains for safe passage.

The canyon contains the Zlá Diera cave system, the only accessible cave formation in the entire Prešov district of Slovakia.
