Bicycle tour around Lake Piscatawpine

You will start your leisurely trip along the Elbe Trail in Litoměřice. Cycle route No. 2 - Labská trail will lead you after a few kilometres to Píšt'any, where you can swim in the Píšt'any lake or have a snack in the restaurant in the local Marina. The ferry will take you from Píšt'any to Lovosice, where you can visit the new lookout point U Zámečku right by the Elbe. The alternative route of the Elbe Trail 2A will then lead you along the Elbe River to another ferry in Malé Žernosky. Thanks to this boat connection, you can get back on the main route of the Elbe Trail to Velké Žernosky, where you can make a small detour to the village and buy liquid souvenirs in the form of Žernosec wines. There are several wineries in Velké Žernosky (e.g. Žernosecké vinařství s.r.o., Víno Hrabkovský, Family winery Mikulenkovi or Vinařství Porta Bohemica). From Velke Žernosky you can drive back to Litoměřice upstream. End your relaxing trip in a relaxed café called Káva s párou, located just a few metres from the Elbe Trail. If you like the area around Lake Píšt'any, you can also stay here. Accommodation can be arranged at the Marina in Píšt'any, at the adjacent campsite or at the beautiful Hotel Lev in Lovosice.

Stops

We have been producing wine since 1990. The winery offers products from our own vineyards, stylish hospitality, themed events, tastings and accommodation in the Aurelius guesthouse, which is part of the winery. Order a tasting experience for your sports group, family, and work team. Combine it with a tour of the vineyard and you will find out … you will than discuss it in the morning over breakfast, for example from homemade eggs or other local ingredients.

The winery is also open to passers-by, tourists, cyclists and wine lovers of any sort. You can enjoy sitting inside in the authentic tasting room and in several open-air courtyards around the winery. They prepare greaved pancakes, homemade bread, greaves spread, bacon dumplings, pancakes and other delicacies for the wine. There is also a small farm near the winery, so we prepare meals from our own resources - a rooster in wine, a duck, a rabbit, etc. Fish and lamb are smoked. There are just too many reasons to visit this winery.
