Forest hike around Rača
Meeting point: November 11 at Račianske Mýto tramstop at 10:00
As the temperature is cooler and the hours of sunlight shorter, this week the hikers are not going so far away, and mostly through familiar territory.
You will meet at Račianske Mýto tram stop for the no. 3 tram to Komisárky. This week's hike will begin from there. The group of foreigners will mostly take unmarked trails and will have a stop at Biely Kríž at roughly the halfway point, so you can get some food and drink at the buffets there.
The total distance of the hike is around 12 km, with a mixture of terrain and elevations. Don't forget about wearing good footwear, which is a must. It would be good also to bring some hot drinks with you.
Below you can take a look at the map for the hike.
