The Orava-Nowy Targ Basin is an intramontane depression located at the border of the Inner and Outer Carpathians. It is filled mostly with fine-grained terrestrial and fresh-water deposits of Neogene and Quaternary age, which record the structural evolution and denudation processes of the surrounding regions: Orava, Podhale, and the Tatra Mts. The Orava-Nowy Targ Basin fill was studied in the Oravica River section, which reveals 90 m thick Neogene deposits and allows observation of their lateral diversity. Fifteen lithofacies and seven facies associations distinguished here document the depositional evolution of the basin fill, starting from hill-slope debris flow through silt turbidite-bearing lake, to flood-dominated fluvial plain, swamp and alluvial fan deposits, as well as a pyroclastic event. The palaeorelief was low during deposition and the Orava-Nowy Targ Basin could have spread significantly more to the south.
