For any fan of Gothic Horror, Cachtice Castle is a must see place to experience, but its often not clear from the online postings on how to get there by public transport. We took the train from Nové Mesto nad Váhom to the little village of Visnove at the base of the hill. Visnove is actually closer to the castle than Cachtice and getting dropped off in this sleepy village and being greeted by only wandering sheep helped set the mood for the visit. The trail up to the castle is behind a house in the center of the village and is not clearly marked (look at Google maps). However, climbing up the steep, unpaved trail through the forest continued to add to the experience, especially considering we didn't see another soul the entire time. Once you get up to the top of the hill, take a left where the trails intersect and soon you will be overlooking the castle. After visiting the castle, we took the main path into Cachtice with all the tourists coming and going and caught a train back up to Nove Mesto and onto Trencin, where we were staying.
