A hiking trail through Ropki follows a local path between scattered houses and leads to a trail junction. The path runs near the site of a former Orthodox church; remains of a cemetery are located near this site. A little farther on, old wooden houses bear witness to the village’s pre-war past. This path has a different focus from the summit hike: it centers on the route through the village and its historical traces. The sequence of scattered buildings, the trail junction, and historical sites gives you a different perspective on Ropki than a trip focused mainly on summit destinations.
