Guided Cycling Tours
Explore the forgotten beauty of deep border forests and southern Bohemian ponds...
As in other parts of the world, cycling has become more and more popular. Immediately after the fall of the “iron curtain” many new areas in the beautiful Bohemian and Moravian corners became open to cyclists. Before democracy some of these places were open only to fully armed soldiers and only a few dedicated cyclists in central Europe attempted to go there. Today there are only a few undiscovered paths left, which now drive more cyclists to explore them and at the same time admire the surrounding country side.
Bohemian landscape is not only breath-taking, but it can olso boast its overwhelming number of cultural and historical sights, which are part of our national heritage. Let´s join us on windy old roads and peaceful and undisturb forest paths. Explore the forgotten beauty of deep border forests that reach the silver surfaces of southern Bohemian ponds. Experience the splendour of majestic enchanting castles and chateaus. With us you can discover the expansive picturesque Czech countryside, while creating unforgettable memories you can share with others. You can travel from place to place at your own pace without being disturb. No worries – we will attend to everything. We will look after your belongings, organize accommodation, board and lodging and guide you along the most interesting trails.
