Mountain Route, Stage 6: Travel Guide Omastiná - Remata

After more relaxing day yesterday, it is gonna be more demanding today again. Expect the first mountain pass right after leavin Omastiná. After 10 kilometres uphill on gravel road you reach Sedlo pod Čiernym vrchom pass in 860 metres.

Enjoy a 10-km long downhill to Nitrianske Pravno dam with option to swim and relax if you need. There is also a bistro/pub here. Continue on road with traffic for 3 kilometres to Ploštín, where you turn left to unpaved forest cycling path that takes you to Bojnice. 

Bojnice has one of the most popular chateaux in Slovakia. Definitely worth to stop here at least to see it from outside (if not taking a guided tour) and relax at one of local cafés at the square here. 

Before entering Prievidza, turn left to follow the Nitra valley for a while and after crossing a few villages after Nedožery-Brezany, join the cycling path on former military road from the Cold War era. Up and down gravel road takes you to Remata resort, where you will find your accommodation.
