Plavnica is located E of Stara Lubovna. The isolated rural/agricultural hillside has no sign or marker. Reached by crossing a public field, access is open to all via a broken masonry wall without gate. 20-100 marble 19th-20th century flat shaped tombstones with Hebrew inscriptions are in original locations. Adjacent properties are agricultural. Private visitors stop rarely. Vegetation is a very serious threat disturbing stones and graves.
