Around Paradajs Hill in 2 hours

Paradajs educational trail

This circular walking route uses 19 information panels to tell the story of the Štiavnica stratovolcano, mining and the lives of the miners.

It loops around Paradajs Hill, which you can spot even from the centre of Banská Štiavnica thanks to the large cross on its summit. Along the way you’ll enjoy beautiful panoramic views, fairy-tale forest tracks and winding footpaths. There are benches where you can take a break, as well as pyramids of rock samples. The route is easy and takes about 2 hours. In winter you can also do it on cross-country skis.
