Hlinik nad Vahom is located W of Zilina. The isolated wooded hillside has no sign or maker. Reached by turning directly off a public road, access is open to all via fence and non-locking gate. 100-500 marble, granite, and sandstone 19th-20th century tombstones, in original locations, are flat shaped stones, finely smoothed and inscribed stones, or multi-stone monuments (monumental tomb as antique temple) with Hebrew and German inscriptions. Some with metal fences around graves. The site is Jewish cemetery only. Adjacent properties are roads and forest. Occasionally, private visitors stop. Individuals occasionally clean or clear vegetation. Within the cemetery is a monument tomb as antique temple. Vandalism is a serious threat. Weather erosion a minor threat.
