Forest Transformations Nature Trail

Discover how the forests of Orava have evolved over centuries – from unique peat bogs and traditional landscapes to primeval and mountain forests.

The Forest Transformations Nature Trail leads through the surroundings of Klin and offers a unique insight into the evolution of Orava's forests and landscape. This circular route combines natural and cultural attractions, passing through the Klin Peat Bog, traditional agricultural landscapes, mountain meadows, forests and the hamlet of Ťaskovka. Thirteen educational stops explain peat bogs, primeval forests, forest ecosystems, local wildlife and the history of Klin. A highlight of the trail is the observation tower overlooking the peat bog, offering panoramic views of the Orava Reservoir, Babia hora, Pilsko, the Roháče Mountains and the High Tatras.
