This trail offers new experiences and uncovers hidden paths for preserving nature and its inhabitants.

The Natural Educational Path ‘On the Trail of Kingfisher’ invites nature enthusiasts and hikers to explore from the village of Cerovo, towards Log pod Cerovim, through the edge of the forest, past meadows, to the hamlet of Podlom and the source of Podlomščica.

This area is known as the land of the ‘Podlomars’, from the local legend. From here, the path ascends through the karst forest terrain to Županova Jama (Mayor’s Cave) and continues towards one of the few remaining anti-Turkish forts, Tabor above Cerovo. It then descends back to the village of Cerovo.
