Discover the Drevuliaci<\/strong><\/a> with your children. These are seven oversized wooden sculptures<\/strong> set along a hiking trail in Ra\u010dkov\u00e1 Valley near Pribylina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along the route, you\u2019ll meet the shepherd Ra\u010dko with his grandson Pla\u010dko, an angel whose wing brushed against Kriv\u00e1\u0148, the lazy mushroom picker Fero resting in a basket, the stubborn Yemn\u00edk guarding the entrance to the Narrow Valley, Pionierka Vierka, who found eternal youth here, and the water goblin Mokrof\u00fazik. Each sculpture has its own story \u2013 some are humorous, others mysterious; all are authentic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the entrance to the valley, a <\/span>painted<\/strong> map shows the exact location of all the sculptures<\/strong><\/a>. Set out to find them \u2013 children can tick off each one they discover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy a walk in the fresh mountain air as you take in the calm atmosphere of the Western Tatras and the scent of spruce forest in the picturesque Ra\u010dkov\u00e1 Valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Drevuliaci were created in 2017 as a community project without grants or subsidies. They are the work of woodcarver Michal Hanula, who can create virtually anything from wood \u2013 the result is remarkably lifelike. The sculptures reach up to four metres in height and weigh around 300 kilograms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>The route is approximately 5 km long<\/strong>, easy and suitable for the whole family. Entry is free and the trail is accessible all year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
