North of Smolenice is the village Bukova with water reservoir and a marked route, which leads southward to the romantic ruins of the Castle Ostry Kamen from the 13th century. The Castle was a royal border fort guarding the Czech road in the past. It is in decay since the 18th century though part of its walls, bastion, and adjacent buildings are still observable. The top of the Castle provides a nice view.
