SOCIO-ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF THE ORAVA REGION AND ITS ADAPTATION POTENTIAL. 1. Basic characteristics of the region 1.1 Position of the region within proposed VÚC In terms of prepared public administration reform, it might be quite interesting to investigate the position of the region in the realm of the higher territorial and administrative unit (VÚC) into which it should, according to proposed concept of reform, belong. Therefore we dedicated the following section to this issue. According to proposed Concept of Public Administration Reform, the examined region should belong to Liptovsko-Oravsko-Turčianskeho higher territorial and administrative unit (LOT VÚC) located in the north of Slovakia. By its area of 4,757 km2 it is the fifth largest VÚC. Mountainous relief prevails in the landscape when the highest mountains of Slovakia can be found in the region - Tatry (eastern part of VÚC), Nízke Tatry and Veľká Fatra (southern part of VÚC), Malá Fatra (western part of VÚC) and Oravské Beskydy (northern part of VÚC). The VÚC contains also three large valleys - Turčianska (southern part of VÚC), Liptovská (eastern part of VÚC) and Oravská (northern part of VÚC). Three important rivers run through the VÚC as well - Váh, Turiec and Orava. The LOT VÚC is composed of seven districts – Martin, Liptovský Mikuláš, Ružomberok, Turčianske Teplice, Dolný Kubín, Námestovo and Tvrdošín. The last three form the Orava region. It is located in the northern part of the LOT VÚC and fills almost 41% of its total area. By it number of inhabitants of 376,646 (almost 7% of the population of Slovakia), the LOT VÚC belongs to under average VÚCs occupying the eighth place in the Slovak rank. The population of the Orava region creates almost a third of entire LOT VÚC. With regard to density of population, the LOT VÚC with its 79.2 inhabitants per km2 is one of the least densely populated regions of Slovakia, while 48% of its population lives in rural settlements; scattered settlement mainly in the Orava region***. Martin is the largest city of the LOT VÚC (61,025). Other relevant cities are: Liptovský Mikuláš (33,819) and Ružomberok (31,046). Dolný Kubín (20,004)* is the center of the Orava region. In comparison to that of the SR, the age structure of population of the LOT VÚC is more favorable mainly in terms of pre-productive age group quoting 26.4% share of population (the figure for the SR is 20.43%) and post-productive age group (16.1% of the LOT VÚC vs. 17.79% of the SR). The age structure of the Orava region is even more positive than the one of the LOT VÚC, when only 26.71% of population belongs to pre-productive age group, 63.2% productive age group (the LOT VÚC – 57.5%) and only 10.09% of population belongs to post-productive age group*. Currently, the LOT VÚC did not avoid a loss of population due to mechanic migration, when the increase of population due to mechanic migration per 1,000 inhabitants achieved –0.39 in 1999 (the third worse figure in Slovakia). The Orava region has even higher decrease of population (-0.79). At the same time, the figure of overall increase of population due to mechanic migration per 1,000 people for entire Slovakia is +0,27**. As for ethnic composition, the VÚC as well as the Orava region are absolutely dominated by the Slovaks. The share of Slovak nationality in entire population is the third highest in Slovakia quoting 97.76%. In the Orava region, Slovak nationality is represented by a 99.1% share while the average for entire Slovak Republic is only 85.62%***. The education structure of population of the Orava region as compared to the LOT VÚC is less favorable in terms of the ratio of lower educated population to higher educated population (Table 1). In terms of Slovakia, however, the LOT VÚC is the fifth as for the share of university 5 educated population when only traditional university centers and economically strong regions are before it***. Table 1 Education structure of population of the LOT VÚC and the Orava region Education Liptovsko-Oravsko-Turčiansky VÚC Orava region Grade school 27.83% 29.1% Apprentice 19.59% 18.8% Secondary vocational 2.54% 1.5% Secondary general ending with 2.87% 2.4% state exam Secondary vocational ending 15.11% 13.5% with state exam University 5.07% 3.6% Source: Regióny Slovenska (MESA10) Economic indices for the LOT VÚC achieve prevailingly the figures around the average for the Slovak Republic (excluding Bratislava). While in terms of production per capita, it quotes the forth place in the SR (including Bratislava) – SKK 67,000 per capita, in terms of investments per capita it is the seventh ranked with SKK 21,000 per capita*. The number of profitable organizations per 1,000 inhabitants in productive age is an indicator of economic activity in the region as well. As for the LOT VÚC it is 12.7 (1998), while for the Orava region only 9.8 (1999). For entire Slovakia, it is 17.5 profitable organizations per 1,000 inhabitants in productive age (1999). With regard to the number of physical entities per 1,000 inhabitants in productive age, the Orava region has accomplished in 1999 a fairly positive figure of 88.1 entities per 1,000 inhabitants in productive age (the figure for Slovakia is 88.8 entities). As for the LOT VÚC, this indicator quoted 79.1 physical entities per 1,000 inhabitants in productive age in 1998**. Regarding tax issues, the share of the Orava region in collection of direct and indirect taxes in the LOT VÚC did not exceed 5% in 1996-1999 (excluding the effect of collections of taxes and customs at the costumes office in District of Tvrdošín, since these come not exclusively from activities performed in the Orava region) and any trends of development of this share are hard to identify at all. In 1999, the Orava region accounted for 10% of the VÚC collection of corporate income tax and 22% of the VÚC collection of personal income tax. First, this indicates fairly low economic power of the Orava region even within the LOT VÚC, when solely the district of Dolný Kubín can be more or less measured with some stronger districts such as Martin, Liptovský Mikuláš and Ružomberok. Second, high returns of VAT, which lower overall collection of all taxes of the Orava region as far as to negative values, demonstrate that commodities produced at the region are in high portion exported and consumed in other regions**. The average monthly wage in the LOT VÚC in 1998 was SKK 8,635, when the Orava region has continuously reported a little bit lower figures (SKK 8,346 in 1998) than the VÚC.

The intramontane Orava Basin – evidence of large-scale Miocene to Quaternary sinistral wrenching in the Alpine- Carpathian-Pannonian area. Acta Geologica Polonica, 69 (3), 339−386. Warszawa. The Carpathian Orava Basin is a tectonic structure filled with Neogene and Quaternary deposits superimposed on the collision zone between the ALCAPA and European plates. Tectonic features of the south-eastern margin of the Orava Basin and the adjoining part of the fore-arc Central Carpathian Palaeogene Basin were studied. Field observations of mesoscopic structures, analyses of digital elevation models and geological maps, supple- mented with electrical resistivity tomography surveys were performed. Particular attention was paid to joint network analysis. The NE-SW-trending Krowiarki and Hruštinka-Biela Orava sinistral fault zones were recog- nized as key tectonic features that influenced the Orava Basin development. They constitute the north-eastern part of a larger Mur-Mürz-Žilina fault system that separates the Western Carpathians from the Eastern Alps. The interaction of these sinistral fault zones with the older tectonic structures of the collision zone caused the initiation and further development of the Orava Basin as a strike-slip-related basin.

Człowiek i rolnictwo Instytut Geografii i Gospodarki Przestrzennej Uniwersytet Jagielloński, Kraków 2009, s. 81–88 Krzysztof Miraj Orawa. pogranicze polsko-słowackie Zarys treści: Autor ukazuje w artykule czynniki rozwoju i bariery hamujące postęp obszaru przygra- nicznego – polskiej Orawy. Opisywany rejon Podhala od wielu już lat korzysta ze swego nadgranicz- nego położenia, co ma wyraz w wielofunkcyjnym rozwoju wsi orawskich. Rozwijającą się na wielu płaszczyznach polsko-słowacko współpracę ułatwia od 2004 r. członkostwo obydwu krajów w Unii Europejskiej. Słowa kluczowe: Orawa, pogranicze, Euroregion, Podhale Polska Orawa położona jest w zachodniej części regionu Podhala. Od zachodu i po- łudnia wyznacza ją granica państwowa pomiędzy Polską a Słowacją, a od północy i wscho- du wododział pomiędzy Morzem Bałtyckim a Morzem Czarnym. Cała Orawa należy do zlewiska tego drugiego morza. Powierzchnia polskiej Orawy wynosi 343 km2 (34 296 ha). Warto tu dodać, iż słowacka część Orawy obejmuje 1316 km2 (131 607 ha). Polska Orawa położona jest na pograniczu Zachodnich Karpat Zewnętrznych i Za- chodnich Karpat Wewnętrznych. Południowa część badanego obszaru wchodzi w obręb Kotliny Orawskiej, stanowiącej zachodnią część Kotliny Orawsko-Nowotarskiej. Najwięk- szym powierzchniowo obszarem polskiej Orawy jest Pogórze Orawsko-Jordanowskie. Tylko niewielka (północno-zachodnia) część omawianego rejonu Podhala zalicza się do Beskidu Żywieckiego (Balon i in. 1995). Administracyjnie Orawa położona jest w południowej części województwa mało- polskiego, w powiecie nowotarskim, gdzie zajmuje jego zachodnią część. Obszar ten po- dzielony jest pomiędzy 4 gminy: Jabłonkę, Lipnicę Wielką, Rabę Wyżną i Czarny Dunajec. Do gminy Jabłonka, oprócz wsi gminnej, należą: Chyżne, Lipnica Mała, Orawka, Podwilk, Zubrzyca Dolna i Zubrzyca Górna.

    Acta Geoturistica Volume 10 (2019), number 1, 91-101 Brestovská Cave as a new locality for speleotourism in Slovakia Vladimír Čech1,a, Vladislava Košová1,b and Marek Pira1,c 1University of Prešov, Faculty of Humanities and Natural Sciences, Department of Geography and Applied Geoinformatics, Ulica 17. Novembra 1, 081 16 Prešov, Slovakia Abstract On August 31, 2019, three years have passed since the Brestovská Cave was opened to the public. This cave is the youngest cave open to the public in Slovakia and the only one opened in the Orava Region. Brestovská Cave lies in the cadastral area of the Zuberec village, near the Museum of the Orava village in the West Tatra Mountains. The cave administrator and operator is the Slovak Caves Administration based in Liptovský Mikuláš, which is an organizational unit of the State Nature Conservancy of the Slovak Republic. There is no artificial lighting in the cave. Visitors are equipped with helmets and headlamps. This form of access is called a speleological guide service. Our article deals with complex characteristics of the cave (physico-geographical conditions, history of discovery, research, cave access and protection, cave attendance analysis). Key words: Brestovská Cave, cave attendance, speleotourism, West Tatra Mountains, visitors Introduction Karst areas in the Slovak Republic occupy an area of 2700 km2. In terms of geotourism, they represent a highly attractive area with a wide range of surface and underground karst forms. Caves are the most important underground karst forms. According to Nature and Landscape Protection Act no. 543/2002 Coll., the cave is a man-accessible and naturally created hollow underground space in the Earth's crust whose length or depth exceeds 2 m and the dimensions of the surface opening are smaller than its length or depth.

The intramontane Orava Basin – evidence of large-scale Miocene to Quaternary sinistral wrenching in the Alpine- Carpathian-Pannonian area. Acta Geologica Polonica, 69 (3), 339−386. Warszawa. The Carpathian Orava Basin is a tectonic structure filled with Neogene and Quaternary deposits superimposed on the collision zone between the ALCAPA and European plates. Tectonic features of the south-eastern margin of the Orava Basin and the adjoining part of the fore-arc Central Carpathian Palaeogene Basin were studied. Field observations of mesoscopic structures, analyses of digital elevation models and geological maps, supple- mented with electrical resistivity tomography surveys were performed. Particular attention was paid to joint network analysis. The NE-SW-trending Krowiarki and Hruštinka-Biela Orava sinistral fault zones were recog- nized as key tectonic features that influenced the Orava Basin development. They constitute the north-eastern part of a larger Mur-Mürz-Žilina fault system that separates the Western Carpathians from the Eastern Alps. The interaction of these sinistral fault zones with the older tectonic structures of the collision zone caused the initiation and further development of the Orava Basin as a strike-slip-related basin.
