The flat route is good for families with children as well as keen cyclists of all ages. The 28km-long trail between Carlsbad and Sokolov leads riders to several places of natural beauty. The most prominent of these are the Svato\u0161sk\u00e9 Cliffs, created by centuries of erosion caused by the River Oh\u0159e. Today we can admire this set of mammoth rock pillars and other rock formations from the opposite bank of the river, a spectacle that will leave few unimpressed. Many a myth and legend is linked with the spot, but all have a common theme \u2013 tragic romance. Further along the trail you arrive at Loket Castle which contains a special exhibit \u2013 the Loket meteorite. There\u2019s also an exhibition examining torture, porcelain collections and a tower with great views where Loket\u2019s very own Dragon lurks. At a crossroads near the castle you\u2019ll discover the trunks of old ivy plants. This species is usually a kind of vine, however constant care has transformed it into a unique spectacle.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: -34px; top: -6.28125px;\">\n<div class=\"gtx-trans-icon\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-6 hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling fusion-equal-height-columns\" style=\"background-color: #fafafa;background-position: center center;background-repeat: no-repeat;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;margin-bottom: 0px;border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;border-color:#ecefef;border-style:solid;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-9 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-one-half fusion-column-first reverse-cols\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 10% 10% 10% 10%;\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-10\"><h3><strong>Loket Castle<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div><style>.fusion-imageframe.imageframe-5{ margin-bottom : 40px;}<\/style><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-5 hover-type-none fusion-no-medium-visibility fusion-no-large-visibility\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" title=\"kk_loket\" src=\"https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket.jpg\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-15337\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271280%27%20height%3D%27720%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201280%20720%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271280%27%20height%3D%27720%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_loket.jpg 1280w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/span><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-11\"><p>\u2018The key to the Czech kingdom\u2019 is how Charles IV once described Loket Castle. This Gothic pile not only occupies a strategic position upon a promontory high above the River Oh\u0159e which surrounds it on three sides, it also has great historical significance and possesses a large dose of mystery. The castle is steeped in myths and legends and houses a fascinating and wide-ranging exhibition on torture. For something a bit jollier, climb the 26m-high tower for amazing views. Staying with attractive spectacles, your visit should also include the castle\u2019s collection of locally-produced porcelain. Nor is Loket lacking culture &#8211; in the town below the castle you\u2019ll discover a natural amphitheatre which hosts countless cultural events, the popularity of which grows with every passing season. The atmosphere of events set against the backdrop of the towering castle is an experience that will live long in the memory.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div

nowhere else in central Europe. The reserve is made up of the remains of a former salt lake which, over the centuries, has morphed into peat bog and mineral-rich salt marsh. There are also signs of ongoing volcanic activity in the form of small mud volcanos, CO2 bubbling to the surface and mineral-rich springs. This is an unusual biotope, home to many protected kinds of fauna, the wetlands a habitat for plants that prefer salty environments.<\/p>\n<p>You can explore the Soos nature reserve on wooden walkways that run for 1.2km and include several information boards. There\u2019s also a geopark, a museum housing scientific and paleontological collections, an exhibition of life-size prehistoric lizards, an exhibition entitled \u201eBirds of the Cheb District\u201c and a deer enclosure.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-8 hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling fusion-equal-height-columns\" style=\"background-color: #fafafa;background-position: center center;background-repeat: no-repeat;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;margin-bottom: 0px;border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;border-color:#ecefef;border-style:solid;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-13 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-one-half fusion-column-first reverse-cols\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 10% 10% 10% 10%;\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-14\"><div>\n<h3><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Summer and winter in the Kru\u0161n\u00e9 Mountains<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><style>.fusion-imageframe.imageframe-7{ margin-bottom : 40px;}<\/style><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-7 hover-type-none fusion-no-medium-visibility fusion-no-large-visibility\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" title=\"kk_krusne-hory_cyklo\" src=\"https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo.jpg\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-15335\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271280%27%20height%3D%27720%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201280%20720%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271280%27%20height%3D%27720%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/zivykraj.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kk_krusne-hory_cyklo.jpg 1280w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/span><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-15\"><p>The Czech-German border is formed in the north by the Kru\u0161n\u00e9 Mountains, rugged frontier country with an intriguing history.

This is a truly idyllic place where many rare species of fauna and flora have found refuge. Somewhat unfairly, this region is often overlooked, but those who make the effort to reach it are often amazed by its romance and mystery.<\/p>\n<p>The Czech Republic is well-known for its network of well-marked hiking trails and this holds true for the Slavkovsk\u00fd Forest, too. The Kladsk\u00e1 nature trail leads walkers through one area with lots of information on various aspects of its natural history provided along the way. Mineral springs have created a peat bog at Kladsk\u00e1 which you can visit by following a raised timber walkway that bridges the boggy ground.<\/p>\n<\/div><div

In the early 12th century the powerful \u0160tauf family commissioned a grand palace here, the ruins of which we can still admire to this day. The westernmost tip of the Czech lands has seen some turbulent times, a popular destination among invading armies looking to take this strategic area. The town of Cheb itself is packed with historical places of interest, and if you really want an unusual insight into its past, take a tour of the original period timber attics, built when Charles IV

It\u2019s a town of Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance buildings which stand in stark contrast to the Socialist Realism bequeathed by more recent, troubled times. Ostrov\u2019s Renaissance chateau is a complex of buildings with many beautiful halls where you will find porcelain collections and exhibitions tracing the history of the local \u0160lik family.<\/p>\n<p>The holy circuit is the name by which the local monastery goes. The previous regime used it as a barracks, almost completely destroying the complex in the process. A huge renovation project has seen the place returned to its former glory, and today you can visit the wonderful Chapel of the Saints and other religious buildings.<\/p>\n<p>The town\u2019s Socialist Realist architecture dates from the times when uranium was mined in the area. No one can deny that these Socialist-era structures possess a certain grandeur. There are six walking routes to choose from, each dealing with various aspects of this intriguing town.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div

The Carlsbad Region\u2019s courses are some of the most celebrated in Europe and regularly host both amateur and professional tournaments.
