We got to the ticket booth in Podlesok a bit before 7, the ticket guy got there at 7 o’clock. Ticket is 1.5 eur, parking 3 eur, and a map is 3 euro.

Yes, definitely. Actually, there is a lot of trails/gorges to choose from so it's not like you can't go on for a long time, but the scenery overall is pretty similar: Prielom Hornadu is a different type of scenery, but other gorges are similar type. And of course there is the ice cave if you travel more to the south of S.P., so this eats some time (assuming you are based in Podlesok/Hrabusice/Cingov etc). So I would actually say (at least if excluding trip to cave) that if you're a good fit hiker, so that you can do like 2-3 attractions during a single very long day hike, such 1 full day of hike is already acceptable and 2 hiking days is what easily allows you to feel "if I stayed longer there would still be things to do, but basically I already do know what this National Park is all about" - while if you don't do as large and long hikes, then 2 hiking days is already all well and fine, and 3 hiking days is what will still not make you bored. However - those numbers of days which I gave are hiking days i.e. you need weather for it, obviously this is always a lottery what you get when you come, and it's not safe to go to the ladders / metal steps during a rain as they get slippery. Not all days can be hiking days, and you can't predict this before you are at the spot and see the weather. Yet overall, if you have longer time to allocate in the area, I would devote more of it to High Tatras (with possibilities of adding Western or Low if you do have a lot) - Slovak Paradise is surely a must when you're in the area, but focusing too much on it might be an overkill: this is a unique style of a mountain range when compared to all the others, but individual places inside it are not that unique really compared one to each other.

PS. So, for example, you might even do like two attractions - western half of Prielom Hornadu (metal steps), and Klastorska Roklina (ladders), to make it total into 10 kms (10 already including both going to the start of the steps, and return from the finish): mapa-turystyczna . pl/route/7zf2 (join the link - anti-spam filters)

Hello. If you don´t have a car available, from Budapest it is probably the easiest way to take a direct train to Košice and then take another train to Spišská Nová Ves. From Spišská it is only about 15 kilometers to Hrabušice, part Podlesok, where the Suchá Belá gorge starts and you can use some local bus or a taxi to reach the place. Then you can get to Vienna by a fast train from Spišská Nová Ves to Bratislava and from Bratislava another one to Vienna.

לא בטוח באזור גן העדן הסלובקי, הם כותבים שזה מתאים לטיולי משפחות

You can enter the trail via Cingov or Harabusice. I recomend walking from Harabusice, due to the terrain being quite steep if you choose Cingov. It's suitable for children, but hiking boots and good weather are essential :) The trail lets you follow the river, but you won't really see any waterfalls. Hope this helps. ~Maria

hi! Don't choose the one with waterfalls. it will be hard for children if they are small or scary of height. The rest trails will be perfect for whole families :)
