Overview

About this route

1

The start is in the picturesque village of Povrazník, from where you follow an asphalt road to the saddle under Jaseňový vrch, then slightly downhill under the ridge and through the beautiful Martinova valley along the Zolná stream. Almost at its end, you smoothly transition onto forest roads, which you climb to the Žiarec elevation on the Hrochot ridge of Poľana. From there, it is a short distance to the fantastic nature reserve Pri Bútľavke, or you can enjoy beautiful views into the Hrochotská valley and onto the Jánošík rock. From Žiarec, you then go back a bit and descend along the blue tourist trail through Oravcovo to Veľká Zolná. Slightly below, towards Ponická huta, a forest skid road begins, which you climb up the Granátka hill back to the saddle under Jaseňový vrch and descend via a side path back to Povrazník.
