The Path Into The Dwarves' Land connects the past with the present and reminds us of the creatures already mentioned by our ancestors. It is dedicated to the old, young and to children and has an educational, social and relaxation character. The path leads along the roads and cart tracks of the settlement Gmajne and is linked to the Forest Teaching Path (Gozdna una pot) Rahtelov vrh. The path originated in the year 2004 on the initiative of the Kragelnik family from Gmajna and with the cooperation of the Tourist Association Slovenj Gradec, the Cultural Association Ksaver-Meko Sele and Educational-protective Association Slovenj Gradec. It is marked by wooden informative hayracks, however, the path is marked even more extensively during an event that takes place every year in the end of the month September. The path is 6 km long and can be walked in 2 hours.
