Hike on the Cistercian Way
4.10.2025 - 4.10.2025

On Saturday, October 4, 2025, at 8:00 AM, you are warmly invited to join us for a guided hike along a shorter segment of the Cistercian Trail (14 km).



At several points along the way, you will discover how the Cistercians of Stična have shaped the landscape over the centuries. The route is marked with informational boards, and more details about the trail are available at https://cisterscapes.eu/en/hiking and in the Outdooractive app.



The Stična section of the Slovenian part of the international Cistercian Trail was developed by the Museum of Christianity in Slovenia as part of the Cisterscapes project — this year’s recipient of the prestigious European Heritage Label.



The Cistercian Trail is a 6,400 km long network that connects European nations. It brings together knowledge and tradition, while also inviting people into nature to explore the cultural landscapes shaped by the Cistercians. The trail leads hikers to ancient Cistercian monasteries, past mills, forests, and vineyards, and highlights the values of self-sufficiency, coexistence, and international cooperation.



The hike is expected to conclude around 2:30 PM.
