Camping House Boňkov #6104

Cycling in the surroundings
The surrounding area offers activities for road and off-road cycling.
If you have a bike at least a little adapted to the terrain (gravel or trekking), we can recommend you to start riding in the valley of the Bradelný brook (Hanslovec). It starts in front of the entrance to our area. After the bridge, you don't turn towards us, but keep going straight. The valley is four kilometres long, it splits at the end, you can choose to go to Potštát or in the opposite direction to Středolesí.

In the opposite direction there is a nice valley to the village of Kyžlířov, you can turn left in the middle of the valley and reach the remains of the Iron Lookout Tower above Puchart Castle.

You are in the Oder Hills, so expect to avoid climbs on the trails. Most of the climbs are not long and steep and even children can handle them.

For road cyclists, I probably don't need to introduce the surroundings too much, the most interesting destinations in the area include the lookout tower on Veselský Hill, the windmill in Partutovice or the Spálovský Mill in the valley of the Oder River.

Flooded quarry Olšovec

The Rock At Fat Jan's
The closest of the rocks is about 300 metres from our campsite. The rock U Tlustého Jana, offers about 10 climbing routes of difficulty III to VII UIAA with a length of up to 10 meters. The access is the shortest from the main path across the stream. In case of high water, follow the yellow hiking trail towards the ruins of Puchart Castle. A short while after entering the forest, turn left onto an inconspicuous path. After a hundred metres you will reach the bottom of the rock.
Further upstream are the Potštátské Rocks Lower and Upper. You will walk about 2.5 kilometres upstream to these sectors. If you decide to approach by car, you will find parking 100 metres from the rocks.
Lower (new) Potštátské skály
A total of 13 climbing routes of difficulty II to VII- UIAA, length about twenty meters. This sector has been completely re-cleaned and cleaned in 2005-2007. The rocks are in the slope behind the stream.
