Trip to the lakes at Čunovo and Rusovce
Due to the heat wave, long hikes in the forest are out for now. This Saturday, the group of hikers will meet at Nove SND bus stop for bus 90, which leaves at 10:17.
They will get off at Vývojová, and walk to Rusovce, where everyone can take a little time to relax, then take the Yellow hiking trail to Čunovo. You can stay there as long as you like, as there are buses back to town every 20 mins from the stop at Čunovské jazerá.
The trail is flat, pretty short, and there are lakes in between.
See the map for the hike below.
