The Landslides of Tachty

Kérjük görgess

The landslides are situated in the upper part of the Gortva stream, in the rocks of Bukovinka Formation.

The ideal landslide environ is caused by rhyodacite tuffs and gravels of this formation lying on the plastic leak proof clays. The landslides are indicated by undulated, hilly character of relief and crooky growing trees. The slided rafts of rhyodacite tuffs partially blocked the Gortva stream and so created two small landslide lakelets.

From the starting information board located in the centre of the village of Szarvaskő, the northern wing of the nature trail leads to the Vár Crag and subsequently to a pike of the Tardos Crag called Akasztó (back and forth: 2.4 km). Stations No. 6, 7, 8 and 9 give an introduction to the typical rock exposures of the gorge valley of the Eger Stream (schist, diabase, deep-sea pillow lava) whereas station No. 10 draws attention to the panorama seen from the Castle of Szarvaskő built in the 13th century. The information board of station No. 11 demonstrates the living world of the siliceous grasslands of the Akasztó Hill. The ring-road designated to the south of the village (6.4 km) goes through the Mocene crag outcrop of the Hegyes-kő lane, the Denevér Adit (wehrlite body) and the Quarry of Tó-bérc. The information board of this latter geological exhibition site presents the diallage rock intrusion intruded into the deep-sea sedimentary complex formed during the Mid-Jurassic about 166 million years ago.

Salgótarján – Szilvás-kő Geological Nature Trail

Right south of the Medves Plateau, the basalt mass of the Szilvás-kő is located extending as a ridge with a length of nearly 1.3 km. On the hill, a wide range of landforms characteristic for basaltic rocks can be observed. Its specific landforms are represented by the deep fissures resultant from mining. The nature educational trail is also supplemented by exhibition boards on forestry by the Ipoly Erdő Close Corporation.
