The Petőfi Walkway

The several decade-long relationship between humankind and landscape can be traced in the walkway linking the castles of Somoskő and Salgó. In addition to introducing the relation of illustrious ancestors, one can get in touch during this walk with one of the basic field of nature conservation, i.e. bird protection as well as coal mining playing a decisive role on the foundation of the town. In the Birds’ Park of Eresztvény, a series of boards entitled as ‘Bird-friendly garden’ by the MME BirdLife Hungary can also be seen.

Salgótarján – Szilvás-kő Geological Nature Trail

Right south of the Medves Plateau, the basalt mass of the Szilvás-kő is located extending as a ridge with a length of nearly 1.3 km. On the hill, a wide range of landforms characteristic for basaltic rocks can be observed. Its specific landforms are represented by the deep fissures resultant from mining. The nature educational trail is also supplemented by exhibition boards on forestry by the Ipoly Erdő Close Corporation.
