That is really unfortunate.
The popup window is already the confirmation step. You first have to tap the "Discard" button and then the red "Discard" confirmation button, as shown in the screenshot.

That said, I agree that an additional confirmation step would not hurt. An even better solution would be a "Recycle Bin" feature that would handle this more comprehensively. Even on the web version, when something is deleted, it is currently permanent. Perhaps we'll get a recycle bin one day — Mapy.com is a dynamically evolving product, and this topic has already been discussed in other forum threads.
As Ewelina mentioned, if a recording is important and irreplaceable, it should be finished and backed up regularly, ideally every day. The safest approach is to save it to another device (for example, a USB drive) as an exported GPX file. If internet access is available, it is also a good idea to let the recording synchronize to the web (cloud storage).
For a hike of this magnitude, I would personally use at least two independent recordings: a dedicated rugged outdoor GPS device as the primary recorder, with the phone serving only as a backup. Dedicated GPS devices usually provide more reliable track recording than mobile phones, which are not primarily designed for this purpose.
I know that none of this helps with the track you have already lost. However, it is sometimes possible to recreate a recording afterwards. In your case, with a route of around 150 km, that may be difficult unless you remember the route very accurately. If most of it followed marked trails and only some sections were off-trail, it may still be possible.
The route can be recreated by planning it exactly as you walked it, using a combination of routed paths and manual drawing where necessary. Once the track is complete, a start and end time can be added. This creates an activity file that can then be imported into Mapy.com or other applications.
If you would like to try this, it can be done on gpxmapy.cz. Click "fast functions" → "other steps" → "creating an activity – adding times". The process is described there in detail. The instructions for creating a new path also contain some brief tips for mixed route planning.
However, this should definitely be done day by day — one accepted track per day. That way, the time tags do not include overnight breaks and the calculated average speeds remain realistic. Individual daily paths can later be merged into a single path if needed.
