Pecovska Nova Ves is located NW of Presov. The isolated suburban crown of a hill has no sign or marker. Reached by turning directly off a public road, access is open to all with no wall or gate. 20-100 19th-20th century tombstones are in original locations. The marble, sandstone, and limestone flat shaped tombstones or flat stones with carved relief decoration have Hebrew inscriptions. Adjacent properties are agricultural and residential. Occasionally, private visitors stop. Vandalism is a moderate threat. Pollution is a minor threat.
