Libětice: Hotels and accommodations

Hradiště u Libětic is located in Libětice on a prominent ridge above the Volyňka River. The summit plateau was fortified as early as the older Iron Age and later became the acropolis of the hillfort.

For your stay in Libětice, you may want to book a hotel.

Culture

The chapel on the village square in Libětice is a small, simple enclosed chapel with a roof lantern serving as a bell tower, and forms a unified ensemble with a stone cross. It is one of the small-scale sacred architectural elements for whose protection the land-use plan establishes conditions.

South of Libětice, there are wayside shrines (Boží muka) in the Nad Liběticemi area.

Hiking and views

The route to Hradiště u Libětic begins at the church in Libětice and leads south. It continues along a field path to the forest. The final section to Hradiště u Libětic leaves the path and leads uphill through the forest northeast to the hilltop.

The Kbíl lookout tower is 42 m high in total and has an observation platform at a height of 27 m, offering views of Strakonice, the Šumava Mountains, Boubín, Bobík, Libín, Kleť, the Brdy Mountains and Temelín. It can be reached via the yellow-marked hiking trail that crosses the road from Libětice to Úlehle south of Strakonice. Alternatively, the route from Švejcarova Lhota leads to the hiking-trail junction on the edge of the village, and from there about 1 km along the yellow trail to the tower.

Cycling

Cycle route Trasa 2A is 18 km long and has an elevation gain of 182 m. It leads through Drachkov, Sousedovice, Libětice, Švejcarova Lhota, Kraselov and Smiradice, returning to Drachkov via Sousedovice.

From Libětice, Trasa 2A heads towards Úlehle without reaching the village; on the more challenging climb, it is possible to take a detour on the yellow-marked hiking trail to Kbíl. The final 150 m are very challenging and suitable for experienced mountain bikers.
