Kalnik se nalazi na granici Zagorja, Prigorja i Podravine, oko 80 km od Zagreba. Ovdje posjetitelja dočekuju živopisan šumski svijet, poučna staza i ostaci dviju starih gradina. Manja od njih nalazi se na vrhu Malog Kalnika, a veća na Velikom Kalniku. Veliki Kalnik bio je nekoć čak proglašen čak i kraljevskom palačom. Bilo je to u vrijeme kralja Sigismunda, čija je žena Barbara Celjska, poznata u legendama i kao »Crna kraljica«, često dolazila ovamo. Grad se prvi put spominje u 13. stoljeću, a sastojao se od tri dijela. Prvi je sagrađen u doba provale Tatara, kada se u njemu neko vrijeme skrivao kralj Bela IV uz kojega se veže i legenda o kalničkim »šljivarima«. Naime, po legendi su stanovnici podkalničkih sela svojim šljivama prehranili kralja, zbog čega im je on dodijelio plemićke časti.
