On the Hamor educational trail, you can meet a nice green locomotive, reminiscent of the times when such mini-trains transported iron ore, wood and finished products, made in the forge and steelworks in Zemplińskie Hamry.
In 1926, the Zemplín Forestry in Snina built the Barnová branch, which is 2 km long, on the line of the former Snina forest narrow-gauge railway.
Originally, the cable car was put into operation due to the transport of stone from a quarry opened in the first half of the 20th century. Later he served as a transport timber harvested in the forests of Vihorlat, which were brought to the sawmill in Snina cars.
Count Józef Degenfeld commissioned the construction of the Snina narrow-gauge forest railway (SULD) with a track gauge of 760 mm in the years 1912-1913. To 1928. J be the track was extended on several occasions up to the top of the Vihorlat, Zvorík village and had a total length of 26.3 km. The original section of the branch Barnová is currently used as a cycle path (green sign and e), which can be reached for a railroad switch in Konskom.
There is a concept of extending the cable car route from Zemplinske Hamre to Sniskey Rybnik, which would perfectly complement the tourist offer of the region - in Sninske Rybnik there is a unique eco-bathing area, an ideal destination for families with children.
