A traditional hike along Srčna pot, takes place in Ruše, where you can take care of your body in a friendly way by either walking or running.

The trail runs from the centre of Ruše, where we can continue in both directions past the Letno Gledališče at the fork of the Pod Goroj Walking Trail, as the trail is circular. You can continue the path along the Pod Goroj walking path to the next point (900 m away), where the marked path rises to the Pohorje in the direction of the Pliberšek homestead. Passing the Pliberšek Beekeeping, the route continues along the forest road that leads to Pohorje, towards Pisker (the so-called Areška cesta). On the side of the road, you will find an educational apiary, which is built according to the basic standards of an apiary typical of Slovene beekeeping. Next to him stands the guardian of the forest with a sweet tooth, the bear. At the apiary, you can read about the history of beekeeping in both Slovenia and in Ruše, learn about the healing effects of honey, and honey products, and at the beehives you can see photos of Ruše’s attractions. The path continues along the forest path and ends at the junction of the two walking paths, where we started our circular path.

The trail will be upgraded to a beekeeping-learning trail, on which various beekeeping technologies will be demonstrated in individual sections.

Additional offer: You can see a description of beekeeping technologies with prior notice in the Community Apiary of the Ruše Beekeeping Association, which is located behind the Music School (dislocated unit of the Maribor Conservatory of Music and Ballet), where you can also get interesting information about the history of beekeeping in Ruše.

The special feature of the beekeeping route is that it connects as many as three apiaries - the community apiary of the Ruše beekeeping association, the Andrej Pliberšek beekeeping apiary and the mini teaching apiary along the connecting route to Areh.
