Humenné

This walkable town in eastern Slovakia at the confluence of the Laborec and Cirocha Rivers, Humenné sits at the edge of the volcanic Vihorlat mountains and serves as the cultural and economic centre of Upper Zemplín. The town park holds an open-air architecture museum, and the surrounding area is dotted with ruins of medieval castles. A café and restaurant scene in the centre and several historic churches add to the draw for independent travellers.
