Pleasant cycle route, with diverse nature, starts in the park near the Topo\u013e\u010dianky Castle. Throughout the journey to Hru\u0161ov Castle, you will follow to the green tourist sign. The cycle route leads along an asphalt road past vineyards, rows of apple trees, a stud farm with freely grazing horses and up to forest of the wild game reserve.<\/strong> Do not forget to turn left in the forest. A green tourist sign and a sign with an arrow and the inscription “Hru\u0161ov” informs you about the right direction. The last section follows – along a stony road uphill. The last 2 km can be considered the most difficult, because in many places you will rather push the bike, but with a little effort even smaller children can do it. You will be rewarded for your efforts with a beautiful panoramic view from the medieval fortress and a feeling of satisfaction that you did it!<\/strong> <\/p>\n

The journey from Topo\u013e\u010diansky Castle to Hru\u0161ov Castle takes about 2 hours. It takes about an hour to return along the same route. You can also return to Topo\u013e\u010dianky by going down from Hru\u0161ov to the main road leading from Sk\u00fdcov to Topo\u013e\u010dianky (however, this is less safe for children). <\/p>\n
