Volovské vrchy sú krajinný celok, najväčšia časť, Slovenského rudohoria. Ležia v jeho východnej časti.
Zo severu hraničia s Hornádskou kotlinou, zo severovýchodu s Čiernou horou, z juhovýchodu ich ohraničuje Košická kotlina, z juhu Slovenský kras a Rožňavská kotlina, z juhozápadu Revúcka vrchovina, zo západu Stolické vrchy a zo severozápadu Spišsko-gemerský kras.
Aj keď Volovské vrchy vystupujú ako jednotný celok paleoštruktúry Západných Karpát, morfologicky nie je jednotný. [zdroj http://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volovské_vrchy]

S kamaratom Petrom sme sa vybrali prejst Poracsku dolinu na bicykloch. Vyrazili sme zo Sloviniek, kde sme nechali auto. Slovinky maju pri kostole vybornu plochu na parkovanie, co v podobnych dedinach nie je celkom bezne. Bolo pekne slnecne rano a vsetko vyzeralo na paradny vylet. Netusili sme vsak (aj ked sa to mozno tusit dalo), ze Poracska dolina je po tohtorocnych zaplavach a dazdoch vymyta, cesty miestami niet, ani mostov. Spokojne sme nechali Slovinky za...

He opened the already closed lodge Hresna just we to have...

This trip was motivated by hunt on cache "Sachta na Kojsovom" (Shaft above the Kojsov). I called my two friends Vlado and Jozo which like trips in nature. Since the cache is marked as not available in winter I brought a small soldierlike shovel with me and the adventure could start. We got to the place of the cache after more than 2 hours of wading in deep snow. The place of...
