Hiking Tour in the Small Carpathians - In the track of forest people
By Modra Tours
Come and join us for an easy commented hiking tour following the footsteps of the forest people Huncokárs - a German speaking community that lived on both sides of the Little Carpathians since 18th century. You will learn why they came here, how did they live, what they believed in and what were they engaged in. The walk takes place in the forest area of Zochova Chata – most popular recreation spot of the Little Carpathians. You will learn some interesting fact and here hear some captivating stories while enjoying the walk and easy hike in the beautiful forest.
The circuit is about 9 km long and takes about 2.5-3 hours. In case you choose climing the outlook tower, the tour will take 4 hours. The terrain is easy, mainly in the forest road as well as asphalt and some muddy parts. The tour is also suitable for children and dogs. We will start & end at the same place.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is an excellent tour guide - funny, knowledgable, and dynamic. I enjoyed our walk in beautiful Slovak woods while chatting about the Slovak history and culture. Glass of excellent wine out under the night sky was a very welcome and pleasant end of the tour. I will never forget it!

Taking tours with Martina absolutely made my visit to Modra the best. I was traveling solo on this trip, so was very happy to find that Modra has an excellent English-speaking guide (she also speaks German, and a bit of Spanish, too, I think). One afternoon, Martina took me on a hike in the Small Carpathian hills outside Modra, amongst the German woodcutters' cottages and surrounding forest. Besides being a local, Martina also has really studied history of the region and is therefore very knowledgeable. On another day, Martina took me up to the top of the town hall tower to see the view and learn more about the history of Modra. (If you go up when the bells chime, you will get a noisy and beautiful bonus!) I also opted for a wine tasting tour with her which did not disappoint! The wines of this region are spectacular and tasting them with someone who understands the wines and even knows some of the makers, was very special. Martina is a friendly and excellent guide who I would highly recommend to anyone coming to this region of Slovakia!
