Bečva Biking Trail

The trail is about 900 meters away from our hotel.

The trail goes through the Bečva valley and is well suited for beginner bikers. There are two springs of the Bečva river. The one called Rožnovská Bečva is in Horné Bečva, and the second one, that is called Vsetínská Bečva, is in Velké Karlovice. These two springs collide in Valašské Meziříčí, where the trail continues along the Bečva river until the river flows into the Morava river near the town of Tovačov.

Most of the trail is on newly constructed roads with no traffic allowed. The rest of the biking trail is made of less frequented communications and well-maintained asphalt trails in our forests and fields.

What can you see?

There are lots to see! For example, you will be able to appreciate the beautiful nature of Beskydy mountains, traditional wooden houses that are spread around the region or those that are concentrated in Rožnov open-air museum. You can also visit the historical centers of Vsetín, Valašské Meziříčí, Hranice, Lipník nad Bečvou, or Přerov.

Along the trail or in the trail’s close surroundings, there are museums, castles, and palaces that are worth visiting at least once!
