    The beginning of the route leads through the village of Blatnica, from which you can follow the green trail and explore the 6-kilometer long Blatnická valley. This is followed by a steeper climb through the forest up to a grassy summit. Drienok, sometimes also called "Drieňok," offers beautiful views of the ridge of Veľká Fatra extending to the Kremnické vrchy mountains. The descent along the blue tourist trail leads to the Mača crossroads, from where you can continue descending to Mošovce or the village of Rakša.
