Cyklokorytnička Greenway
Country: Slovakia
The CykloKorytnička Cycling Route is a 46 km family-friendly themed cycling trail in the Ružomberok region of Slovakia that follows the route of the former “Korytko” narrow-gauge railway, which operated between 1908 and 1974 and connected Ružomberok with the famous Korytnica Spa.
The route follows the historic railway corridor through the valleys of the Revúca and Korytnica rivers. It leads cyclists to the healing mineral springs of the former Korytnica Spa, once a renowned spa destination. Railway operations ended on 28 September 1974, after which the track was dismantled to make way for a new road.Along the route, 11 interpretation panels present the history of the railway and its importance to the region.The route combines railway heritage, nature, and cycling tourism, allowing visitors to travel along a former railway corridor while discovering historic stations, scenic river valleys, and the cultural legacy of the Korytnica Spa. It is an excellent example of how disused railway infrastructure can be transformed into a recreational greenway.
