Stebnícka Magura
Stebnícka Magura is a picturesque elevation located 10 km northwest of Bardejov in the Prešov region, part of the Čergov mountain range. With an altitude of approximately 900 m, it provides beautiful panoramic views of the surrounding forests, valleys and villages, which are typical for northeastern Slovakia. The area around the hill is known for its rich flora and fauna, ideal for hiking, cycling and naturalistic observation. In winter, recreational sledding or cross-country skiing appear on some slopes.
Stebnícka Magura is also a popular place for radio amateurs, who use the high altitude for connections in VHF competitions. Access is possible via marked hiking trails or forest roads. Visitors can find peace and contact with nature here, which makes this place an attractive destination for families, active tourists and photographers. During clear weather, the views offer beautiful scenery of the Slovak Paradise and the Beský Mountains.
