It is a 16th-century church, and the legend had it that St. Bolfenk chose the place of the church by throwing an ax in a random direction. Next to the church is a mighty linden tree from the year 1648. It was planted during the Peace of Westphalia, at the end of the 30-year war, in 1648. We will continue our journey to the mountain hut Ribniška koča. Here we will have some time to rest and eat some of their traditional meals.
