In the past, Klokočov used to be part of Turzovka (1598), the oldest settlement of Upper Kysuce. Turzovka was divided into 4 separate villages on 15 May 1954 and Klokočov was one of the villages.

Makov lies in the foothills, in a valley between the Javorníky Mountains (with the highest peak Veľký Javorník 1,070 metres above sea level) and the Kysucké Beskydy mountains.

Oščadnica is one of the most important centres of summer and winter tourism in Slovakia, situated under the massif of Veľká Rača (1,236 metres above sea level) – the highest peak of the Kysuce region.

The village was mentioned for the first time in a map of the southern border of Tešín shire before 1620, which is maintained by the Sliezske Museum in Opava.

Staškov lies in north-western Slovakia in the Upper Kysuce region. The River Kysuca flows through the village. It was settled during the colonisation in the middle of the 17th century.

Skalité lies on the Slovak–Polish border, several kilometres from Trojmedzie – the place where three countries meet (Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Poland).

The town lies on the banks of the Kysuca River surrounded by the foothills of Beskydy and Javorníky Mountains. The Javorníky Mountains consist of Nízke (Low) Javorníky and Turzovská Highland.

The altitude of the town is from 460 to 875 metres above sea level.

Vysoká nad Kysucou is a typical village with secluded settlements and places (“pľac”) scattered in picturesque nature, suitable for a very peaceful holiday. It lies in upper Kysuce. It is known for its tinker tradition.
