This unusual football ground is located in Čierny Balog, a village in the Banská Bystrica Region of central Slovakia. It is the home ground of the local football club TJ Tatran Čierny Balog.
What makes the ground remarkable is the narrow-gauge railway line running directly between the football pitch and the main stand. Trains of the historic Čierny Hron Railway (Čiernohronská železnica) can actually pass through the stadium — even while a football match is being played.
