Lvíčák

[10.5 km/350 m]

The trail offers some of the most beautiful views, but paradoxically, it is the least visited place in the Krkonoše Mountains. Perhaps this is due to the long climb that starts at Spálený mlýn and leads to Kosa, the highest point of the trail. From here, there is a beautiful view of Sněžka and Růžová hora. The route continues downhill through Šímovy chalupy, around Nikolov důl and Seidlův důl, and returns via Žacléřské boudy. From here, you can head back to Spálený mlýn or, on the other side, to Pomezky.

Emina Trail

[5.8 km/230 m]

If you stay in the Krkonoše Mountains for a while longer, Emina cesta will become your favorite route. Set off from Spálený mlýn towards Maršov. It is a typical forest road without any significant elevation changes, perfectly maintained in summer. During the ride, you will come across at least two sections in the forest with beautiful views of the foothills of the Krkonoše Mountains. Emina cesta ends below Stará hora and connects there to the official cycle path no. 25 leading from the trail along Dlouhý hřeben.

Krakonoš's Route

[63 km/1775 m; MTB]

Since time immemorial, people have believed that the Krkonoše Mountains are ruled by a powerful spirit called Krakonoš, also known as Rýbrcoul. He is said to hide in a dark valley below Sněžka called Obří důl (Giant's Mine). He teases travelers and protects the poor and honest from the greedy and insatiable. When he is in a gloomy mood or angry at people, he sends bad weather. Above all, he cares for all the trees, flowers, and wildlife, ensuring that they thrive in his domain and protecting them from human greed. Krakonoš is good at managing his estate, if only people didn't spoil it for him sometimes... Our journey will take you on a short tour of his estate. (Via Bike arena Krkonoše)
