Cycle trip on the route Ústí nad Labem - Litoměřice - by bike there and by boat back
Set off from Ústí nad Labem to the royal city of Litoměřice by bike along the Elbe Trail and use the boat line for the return journey.
From Ústí nad Labem, we recommend starting in the morning or early afternoon. The Elbe Trail will take you about 25 km. You will pass under the Střekov Castle, through the beautiful Porta Bohemica valley and past the Žernosec vineyards. It is about an hour and a half to Litoměřice and the trip is also suitable for families with children. Just watch out for the rough terrain in Sebuzín and near Žalhostice. In Litoměřice, you can park your bicycle in the bike garage and go sightseeing in the historic town. Visit the Kalich lookout, Dome Square with St. Stephen's Cathedral or buy some delicious local wine in the wine tavern on the square. In summer, you can also take advantage of the Church Sightseeing Tour. You can have lunch at the Bishop's Brewery at St. Stephen's or at the Town Hall Cellar. And then hurry to the dock on Strelecky Island. Boat line 91 departs at 14:30. A pleasant cruise with a beautiful view and refreshments on board takes just over two hours.
This trip is only possible in the months when the boat line is running (i.e. usually from the end of March to November). More info about the boat line.
Length of the trip by bike: 25 km
Route: Ústí nad Labem - Sebuzín - Velké Žernoseky - Litoměřice - Ústí nad Labem (by boat)
Stops
Monastery wine cellars - Litomerice
The history of winemaking in Litoměřice is truly rich, beginning in 1057, when the monastery began to produce wine.
Church production in the monastery ended after World War II, when wine was produced from the burgher vineyards - small areas owned by several people. Between 1950 and 1990, a state-owned company operated here. Until recently, mass wine was also produced here under the permission of the regional bishop. After EU accession, only the Bishops' Conference, which has chosen another winery, can issue permits. An interesting feature is the production of the trademark wine Radobýl, named after a nearby hill.
We are engaged in the production and sale of varietal wines with the possibility of tasting. We offer wines Tramín, Muller Thurgau, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris, Riesling, Blue Portugal, Pinot Noir, Cuvée rosé and others.
The flagship of the winery - Müller Thurgau, Riesling, Tramin Red, Pinot Noir.
The wines can be purchased in the Wine Cellar at Mírové náměstí 10/2 Litoměřice.
