Running

It’s important to do something good for your body from time to time, and there’s no reason to stop your exercise when in Bratislava, since the city offers so many sporting opportunities.

Thus, it is an excellent idea to start your sunny weekend by putting on your trainers and enjoying a little run. You can find some tracks bellow.
