Hrušov CastleHrad Hrušov

An hour's walk into the wooded Tribeč, on a tooth of rock above the village of Skýcov, the ruin of Hrušov keeps watch over forest in every direction. There is no car park at the gate and no ticket office. This is a castle you earn on foot — and the reward is one of the quietest ruins in western Slovakia, barely forty kilometres from Nitra.Hodinu chôdze v zalesnenom Tribeči, na skalnom zube nad obcou Skýcov, stráži zrúcanina Hrušova les na všetky strany. Pri bráne nie je parkovisko ani pokladňa. Tento hrad si treba vyšliapať — a odmenou je jedna z najtichších zrúcanín na západnom Slovensku, sotva štyridsať kilometrov od Nitry.
