The page is about the Magura Spiska "Proper" but in fact, the rather Slovak word "Magura" seems to be a synonim for the Polish "Pogórze". And the term "Pogórze Spiskie/Magura Spiska" is also used to name the whole area east of the Białka River. It's a bit like the Beskid Żywiecki/Oravske Beskydy problem - there are different names on either side of the political border splitting quite a homogenous region.

Re: Magura Spiska ProperMy page is not about all the region, but about Magura Spiska as the map shows, just the long hill that runs north from Zdiar.
