A large category B rest area is to be built on the under-construction D1 motorway section between Hubová and Ivachnová. It will feature 42 parking spaces for cars, 49 for trucks, 8 for buses, and 2 for caravans, plus 6 EV charging points.

The trend of glamping — luxury camping with comfortable tents equipped with beds, heating, and designer interiors — is growing.

Slovakia is experiencing a caravanning boom, driven by technology and a desire for autonomy. For beginners, the Spiš-Gemer-Malohont route offers developed infrastructure; for experienced travelers, Orava and Liptov provide mountain challenges; and for adventurers, the wild east from Bardejov to Michalovce offers pristine nature. Slovak law permits wild camping only above 1000 meters altitude and requires strict adherence to environmental rules.
