    The start and finish are in the village of Rudná (Rožňava district). It starts in front of the Cultural House, where the introductory panel is located (350 m above sea level), which is also the lowest point of the trail.

    The highest point is the summit of Turecká (954 m above sea level) in the easternmost part of the Revúcka Hills. In 2012, a 15 m high metal tourist lookout tower called Turek was built here, from which, in good weather, the High Tatras can also be seen. Near the lookout tower stands the trail signpost of the P. J. Šafárik Trail and an information panel of the NCH Turecká with further details about the location.
