Ski running the middle of the Europe – Slovakia

Yesterday you liked some of my photos from Slovakian Mountains, so I wanted to post some more for you. Hope you will like it. The photos are taken from middle of Slovakia – Kremnicke Mountains. In these mountains is the very middle point of the Middle of Europe. You can found by the road a small stone monument informing of this point, giving also the altitude info and gps location.

Underneath the hills of Kremnicke Mountains there is a small city of Kremnica. It was very important gold city during the whole history of Europe. Gold was dug in the Kremnica mountains and coins were striked here for long centuries, continuing till today.

And in the Kremnicke mountains there is very popular event every year – White trail, which is a competiton in ski running.  And therefore there are superb possibilieties do do ski running – clasics and also skating. Look your self and anytime you are welcome to try some of them ;)

A tunel made in 1703, used for gold shifting between Banska Bystrica (the main city of that time Slovakia) and Kremnica (gold mine and coin producing city). Many times used for fleeding by Austria-Ungary emperors and lokal rulers. Later used during WWII by slovak partisans and generals of the Slovak National Uprising.
