For Kids
Banská Štiavnica is an ideal destination for families with children, with plenty of activities to entertain and educate its youngest visitors.
Children can have lots of fun in play areas and at a range of interactive attractions in town. Climbing frames, rope courses and safe playgrounds are the perfect setting for developing motor skills and imagination. Such activities are a great choice in bad weather or after a more demanding outing.
For little explorers, a visit to the Open-air Mining Museum is ideal. Here you can go underground with your children and experience the authentic atmosphere of mining life. In summer, the tajchs (historic mining reservoirs) are the perfect place for swimming and water activities. These centuries-old reservoirs offer clean water and a pleasant setting for the whole family. In winter, you can take your little ones sledging at Červená studňa or skating on the frozen tajchs. Banská Štiavnica offers plenty of ways to spend quality time with your children, whether you’re looking for fun, learning or active relaxation.
