After approximately an hour on the bus, the route starts from Plavecké Podhradie. Hikers then head to the Plavecký Hrad castle and the Vápenná hill and come almost full circle to the town of Sološnica.

The organisers say that there will be rocky ridges to climb and caves to explore, so perhaps this one is for more adventurous outdoor enthusiasts. The trip takes about 7 hours and is about 16 km of walking.

If you would like to join the hike later, here's a map for anyone not on the same bus.
