Devínska Kobyla
Why locals love it
A forested hill at the South-eastern edge of Bratislava represents a favourite free-time zone with hikers, bikers, family groups and nature conservationists who come here all year round. Its peak (514m.a.s.l) is the highest natural elevation of Bratislava with a spectacular view of Devín castle and the confluence of Morava and Danube rivers.
