This year, Slovakia’s oldest marked hiking trail turned one hundred and fifty years old. This follows last year’s celebration marking 150 years since the establishment of Slovakia’s first hiking club. Today, the tradition of hiking and the upkeep and marking of trails lives on in the KST, The Slovak Hikers Club. To learn about the history of the group and what it takes to maintain nearly 15,000 kilometers of hiking trails in Slovakia, we spoke with several members of KST.
Also in the show, we are introduced to Katarinka, a 17th century monestary tucked away in the hills north of Trnava. There, a dedicated archeologist has spent the last 30 years uncovering the history of this forgotten holy site. We learn about what he has uncovered and about the young volunteers who are helping bring this project to life.
