Hike from Kačín to Rača
Meeting point: Patrónka bus stop, April 7, at 10:30.
This weekend the hikers head out to a nice and relatively unchallenging forest hike of just over 12 km. They will meet at Patrónka bus stop for the bus that will take them to Kačín at 10:38.
Starting at Kačín, calling at Vilmošove Waterfalls, Stanisko, Malý Slavín, Pánová Lúka, Veľká Baňa, and finishing at Detvianska tram stop.
On this hike, you will visit several interesting forest sites. There are some slight elevation changes but it will be mostly flat and on unmarked trails, so expect some rough terrain, but all passable.
Here's the map, if you would like to go on the hike later.
