The locations such as Predmier (Turzovka), Hlinené or Nová Dedina (Podvysoká), Dlhá, Vrch Olešná, etc. were already mentioned in documents from the 16th century. You can get there from the local part of Hlinené, the terminal bus stop (there is a chapel nearby). The settlement and its beautiful environment are related to the legends of Uhorčík, a companion of the national hero Juraj Jánošík, who was born in Turzovka.

The settlement of Hlinené, along with the highland hamlets of Turzovka are the site of the traditional "Uhorčík´s Path" – a hiking event held as one of the events of the Beskydy Festival. The settlements are also well-known to mushroom and berry pickers.

Hlinené is the birthplace of an academic painter Ondrej Zimka

Hlinené is the name of one entire part of Turzovka. The academic painter Ondrej Zimka (*1937) was born here. In his extensive artistic work, Ondrej Zimka has been depcting Hlinené, its parts, trees, streams, people, real and fictional characters, all in his original imaginative design. The old "Hliňaňori", but also the "Džežiňori" from Turzovka (nicknames of the locals) come to life in beautiful colors and with noble qualities. The Beskydy settlements of Turzovka, Korňa and Klokočov are perfect subject for the imagery of the master Ondrej Zimka.

Though Zimka's birth house is no longer standing, he and his parents built a new house in Hlinené while he was still a student of fine arts. His son, the academic sculptor Ondrej 4. Zimka returned from Bratislava to live and work at the birthplace of his father. He has already contributed to the local culture by building a sculpture studio called “artpark” where he has created several works of art. One of them worth noticing is an original monument "Flown away Souls" located in the neighbouring village of Olešná - a monument to casualties of WWI and WWII.
