Saturday forest walk

Meeting point: October 14 at Patrónka bus stop at 10:30

This weekend hikers meet at Patrónka bus stop at 10:30 for the bus to Kačín where the hike will begin.

The trail is around 14 km and should take about 5 hours, including rest stops. The hike is mostly flat, taking in some of the well-known local forest sites, Malý Slavín, Pánova Lúka, and finishing at the buffet "Záhrada Optimista" for a well-earned drink and possibly something to eat. Then, you can catch tram no. 3 back to town at Komisárky.
