The Administration of the Veľká Fatra National Park based in Martin and ULPS Urbár Blatnica in cooperation with the municipality of Blatnica, the Blatnica Volunteer Fire Brigade, the Veľká Fatra Mountain Rescue Service, the Club of Slovak Tourists and Turiec.Run organized a pleasant and especially beneficial Restoration of the hiking trail located in the Veľká Fatra National Park.
The first year of this activity took place on 13.7.2023 in the afternoon so that more volunteers could join. In total, a group of about 50 members participated in the restoration of the hiking trail.
The modification took place on a marked hiking trail in the length of 8 km connecting the Gaderská valley in the area of Konský dol and the Blatnická valley in the locality of Juriašova.
The main task was to remove obstacles on the trail in the form of fallen trees, branches or rocks. In some places, where the original route was changed due to fallen trees, it was necessary to level the terrain or create steps to prevent possible injuries to visitors to the Veľká Fatra National Park. One of the goals was also to prevent access to unmarked trails, which people use to shorten their journey.
A big thank you to all participants for their time and willingness to help in the implementation of a beneficial cause. We believe that our cooperation will continue at other events. At the same time, we invite visitors to take a walk along the restored hiking trail and also to other locations of the Veľká Fatra National Park. After all, walks in nature under the treetops are a great refreshment during hot summer days.
We will be happy for your feedback on whether the renewed hiking trail made you happy.
