The forestry nature trail Čierna mláka is located in the Ondavská Highlands in the forest park of Bardejovské Kúpele. It begins and ends at a place called Above the Pond. The picturesque nature of Bardejov Spa completes the overall scenery. The thematic focus of this forestry nature trail is on the non-productive functions of the forest. The nature trail is year-round and self-service.
The nature trail has three circuits:
- Unpretentious - fir (length 1.9 km - elevation 100 m),
- moderate - beech (length 3.7 km - elevation 220 m),
