Via CzechiaGo on a long-distance cycle route around the Czech Republic
The Via Czechia trails represent the longest and most daring long-distance pilgrimage and tourist routes in the Czech Republic. Routes are marked separately for hiking, cycling or winter skiing - the total length of all routes is 5280 km. The Northern Trail® and Southern Trail® routes cross the entire Czech Republic from the westernmost point to the easternmost point, follow mainly the state border and cross the highest peaks of most of our mountains. The trails go through nature as much as possible and lead to the main attractions of individual areas. Both trails together form a complete, thoroughly mapped and described route around the Czech Republic.
What makes these trails unique?
· These are the longest, most courageously led, thoroughly mapped and documented long-distance routes in the Czech Republic.
· Each route – the Northern Trail and the Southern Trail – runs from the westernmost to the easternmost point of the Czech Republic, measuring over 1000 km, which it represents approximately 6-7 weeks of hiking or 2-3 weeks of cycling.
· Both trails are created in variants for hiking, cycling and in mountain sections for winter skiing. All the routes measure a total of 5280 km!
· The routes are divided into logical sections, with junction points easily accessible by public transport, so they can be completed gradually in parts - according to time possibilities, taste, fitness, etc.
· Routes are designed so that each stage ends in a place where you can sleep under a roof, quality tourist accommodation is available at least every 20-25 km. A campsite or an official campsite is available for approximately half of the stages.
· Important points on the Via Czechia trails are Christian pilgrimage sites, which can become separate destinations for someone.
· Accommodation was searched and recommended guesthouses, mountain huts and hotels.
· Routes are mapped in detail and saved in gpx files using the mapy.cz online tool, which includes information about difficulty, altitude, tourist shelters, wells and springs, or options for refreshments and overnight stays.< br />
Each trail can be completed all at once, travel around the Czech Republic in parts, on foot, by bike or on skis, sleep comfortably in guesthouses and mountain huts, or camp in beautiful places. A mountain or trekking bike is ideal for the cycling variant of the trip. So everyone can choose their favorite form of travel or combine individual activities according to the relief of the landscape or the season.
