IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE CZECH FOREFATHER ON THE RIVER
All tips
Cycle in the footsteps of the Great Father of Bohemia to the mythical Mount Říp. The trip is slightly over 30 km long and can be done by a moderately fit cyclist.
Start your trip in Roudnice nad Labem, where you can get all the information you need at the Podřipsko Information and Transport Centre in Arnoštova Street. From Roudnice, follow cycle route No. 3102, which will take you to the foot of Říp to the village of Rovné. Then you will pass through a local alley and a rather steep and demanding climb to the top of Říp mountain... there is no shame in rolling up :D At Říp you can have a snack in a local hut, see the routunda or several viewpoints.
From Říp, continue down to Rovný and Krabčice. From there, follow the minor road to Bechlin and then to Horní Počapel, where you will join the Elbe Trail. Follow the water through Hněvice, Račice, Záluží and Dobříně back to Roudnice nad Labem.
In Roudnice you can visit the Hlásku tower or the Lobkowicz castle.
