White Carpathians Protected Landscape Area (Slovak: Chránená krajinná oblasť Biele Karpaty) is one of the 14 protected landscape areas in Slovakia. The Landscape Area protects the Slovak part of the White Carpathians, part of the Slovak-Moravian Carpathians, in West Slovakia. The area stretches from Skalica District in the south west to the Púchov District in the north east, copying the border between Slovakia and the Czech Republic and is about 80 km long.[1]
White Carpathians PLA was founded on 12 July 1979, and the law was amended on 28 August 2003.
