Carpathians

The high mountains of the Carpathian Mountains extend in a 1300 km long arc, open to the west, through Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe from the Vienna Basin to the East of Central Serbia. Along with the Alps, the Carpathians are considered the dominant mountain range in Central Europe. The two mountains are also similar in terms of vegetation at lower altitudes. The highest massif of the Carpathians is the High Tatra, which is also popular with tourists. Otherwise, tourism in the mountain massif is still in its infancy.
