Cycling routes in the Bohemian Garnet area
In the area between Lovosice, Třebívlice and Libochovice, the Destination Agency České středohoří has marked several cycling routes.
The cycle routes are marked with the numbers 3118, 3119 and 25A and lead cyclists to interesting tourist places such as Hazmburk Castle, Libochovice Castle, the Museum of the Czech Garnet Třebenice, the Johann W Castle Winery in Třebívlice or the new Vyhlídka U Zámečku in Lovosice.
Thanks to the creation of these cycling routes, the existing important (backbone) cycling routes such as the Elbe Trail ( in Lovosice), the Ohře Cycle Route (in Libochovice) and also cycle route No. 25 have been connected. According to the deposits of the mineral Bohemian garnet in this part of the destination, the project to mark out cycle routes was called Cycle routes in the Bohemian garnet area.
Tip for a cycling trip using the cycling routes of the Bohemian Garnet
From Lovosice, take cycle route No. 3118 through Sulejovice and Úpohlavy to Trebenice, where you will definitely stop at the Chocolateria for some goodies. You can also visit the Museum of the Bohemian Garnet. Then continue along the same cycle route to Lkáně, where at the crossroads take cycle route No. 3119. You will go under the local landmark - the ruins of Hazmburk Castle and through the village of Slatina the route will lead you to Libochovice, where you will not miss the castle with its beautiful garden. To get back to Lovosice, use the cycle route along the Ohře River, which is marked as cycle route No. 6. Here you will find an ideal stop for cyclists, which is the Dvůr Perlová voda. There you can refresh yourself and taste the beer that is brewed right here. The Ohře cycle path continues through Budyně nad Ohří with its unique castle, which is also worth a visit. Then you will go through Doksany and Brozany nad Ohří. Here you turn off the marked cycle path and follow the secondary roads through Keblice and Lukavec to get back to Lovosice.
