Kysuce is a traditional informal name of a region in north-western Slovakia, situated around the Kysuca river and bordering the Orava region in the east, Poland in the north and the Czech Republic in the west. It consists of two districts: Čadca and Kysucké Nové Mesto. The northern part is called the Čadecké region and is part of the Goral Lands.[1] The region is surrounded by the numerous mountain ranges, for example Javorníky with the highest hill Veľký Javorník (1,071 m) in the west, the Moravian-Silesian Beskids with the highest hill Veľký Polom (1,067 m) in the north. In the East there are Kysucké Beskydy with the highest mountain (also the highest in the region) – Veľká Rača (1,236 m) – the symbol of Kysuce. In the South there is Kysucká vrchovina with the highest hill – Ľadonhora (999 m). The oldest known settlement in Kysuce is the city Kysucké Nové Mesto, which is located on an important trade route through the region.
