Along the Kamenice River in Search of Unknown Treasures

The trip starts in Česká Kamenice, where you can see the local chimes or the Mlýnky miniature park.

The cycling trip itself leads from Česká Kamenice along cycle route No. 21, along the Kamenice River.

Česká Kamenice – Mlýny – Hraniční rybník – Horní Chřibská – Chřibská aqueduct – Studený – Kunratice – Česká Kamenice

The route passes directly under the ruins of Fredevald Castle (Pustý zámek) and also past several beautiful chapels and the Mlýnky Forest Theatre. In Dolní Falknov, you can turn off the route and on hot summer days visit the Lesní rybník, which serves as a natural swimming pool.

During this trip, there is another nice body of water where you can relax, namely the Hraniční rybník. From Hraniční rybník, follow cycle route No. 3013 and nice forest paths will take you just below the Malý Stožec.

From the crossroads, cycle route No. 3052 will lead you further to Chřibská. It borders Bohemian Switzerland and the Lusatian Mountains, and it used to be the home of the oldest glassworks in Central Europe. Here you can enjoy some refreshments.

After a break, get on your bike and continue along cycle route No. 3052. In the local part of Dolní Chřibská, you will see several interesting buildings of folk architecture.

An important building near Chřibská is the unique Chřibská Aqueduct. It was built at the end of the 19th century as part of the raceway of Florian Hübel’s weaving mill.

From the aqueduct, cycle route No. 3052 will guide you further through the village of Studený, around the wonderful Pauline’s Valley to Lipnice and Kunratice.

From there it is only a few kilometers back to Česká Kamenice. In the summer months, you can end your cycling trip here at the local swimming pool, located in a beautiful natural environment and has boxes for bicycle storing.
