About this Event
Amidst whispering pines,
Ponds cradle nature’s secrets -
Stillness mirrors sky
Bodies of water have always held a certain fascination amongst nature enthusiasts, and this is no exception. From Vienna main station, a quick train whisks us over to the Slovak capital in less than 60 minutes. There, we first join a Social Brunch before moving on to our actual trailhead.
Expect iron-rich lakes, lush forests and a panoramic chairlift ride to the Kamzik mountain top. After taking in magnificent vistas from what is BA's highest accessible point, we'll follow a meandering vineyard trail back into town. Net hiking time will be ~3 hours.
Underway we'll have fun with ice breakers, discussion prompts and local trivia. After the hike we'll find a local place for dinner before taking our train back to Vienna.
