From Nová Bystřice to Staňkov and Back via Austria

Discover the beauty of the Nová Bystřice region from the saddle of an e-bike. No hill is an obstacle – it's up to you how long a route you choose or whether you take advantage of one of the offered trails in the Nová Bystřice area.

A popular route leading from the gently hilly Nová Bystřice area to the flatter Třeboň region follows paved cycle paths. Cyclists will especially appreciate the minimal car traffic, several-kilometer-long stretches through deep forests – but on new, asphalt cycling roads. There are also picturesque views of South Bohemian ponds and many interesting rock formations.
