Novoť is one of the younger villages in Zamagurie region. The village has become a popular place for recreational stays focused on agritourism. From Modlový Mount, on which a lookout tower with a nature trail and a gazebo have been built, you can see the surrounding panorama and its icons such as Babia hora, West Tatras – Roháče, Low Tatras, Choč, but also Veľký and Malý Rozsutec in Mala Fatra Mountains in good weather and visibility. Novoť areas with their rugged terrain are ideal for cycling, as well as hiking and in the winter season these are often used by cross-country skiers. Since 2005, the Novoťská hrudka has always been organized at the end of June, and the cheese fair, connected with an exhibition of fi gural cheeses and various competitions, is a truly unique event. It is a presentation of the skills and imagination of local cheese makers. In addition to traditional products, such as whips, knots or smoked sheep cheese, you can see cheese shaped into all kinds of shapes. The competition in drawing raw threads is also interesting. Another event that takes place every years in Novoť during the carnival period is the Novoť Furman Days. This cultural event is a demonstration of the relationship between man and animal. Farmers from the surrounding villages, regions, but also cuntries, present the strength, skill and beauty of their horses. They strive to preserve the Furman tradition and so we can see a young generation of Furmans among the competitors.
