Calvary in Vysoké Tatry, Sacred grove at Pekná vyhliadka in Vysoké Tatry, Slovakia.

The Calvary trail stretches for one kilometer through a forest path, featuring fourteen artistic stations crafted from wood and Tatra granite.

Between 2010 and 2015, fourteen artists of different faiths collaborated to create individual stations along the mountain path at elevations between 1100 and 1400 meters.

Each station represents a stage of the Stations of the Cross, interpreted through contemporary sculptures that reflect personal artistic perspectives on suffering and sacrifice.

Visitors can access the trail from Starý Smokovec, following a marked path suitable for families with strollers and offering multiple resting points.

The sculpture collection stands as the highest-positioned Calvary in Central Europe, combining religious art with panoramic views of the High Tatras mountains.
