Hotels in Osvetimany: Trails, Culture and the Chřiby Hills

The Chřiby Hills around Osvětimany consist of resistant sandstone and feature numerous peaks, rock formations and ridges. The distinctive formations include the Osvětimanské skály. They consist of several rock blocks and are called Čertovky by local residents. A well-trodden footpath through mature trees leads to the Osvětimanské skály. From the flat summit of Zikmundova skála, there is a view across a large part of the Chřiby Hills.

Above Osvětimany stands the Baroque Church of St. Gall, a historic landmark more than 300 years old. The church contains a twelve-stop organ built by organ maker Karel Neusser in 1889. Local traditions also have a clear seasonal connection: the traditional havelské hody s právem takes place in Osvětimany every year in the first half of October. At the Hody in Osvětimany, the brass band Nedakoňanka accompanied both the procession and the evening dance event.

The historical costume of Osvětimany was classified among the podhorácký costumes and has not survived to the present day. The Hradisko sv. Klimenta site is also located in the surroundings of Osvětimany. This Great Moravian historical site is associated with Cyril and Methodius and is freely accessible year-round.

For cyclists, there is the Podchřibská cycling route No. 8. The easy circular route is 36.5 km long, is intended for road and trekking bikes, and starts and ends in Osvětimany. In addition, the “Pěšky za skalními útvary v Chřibech” walking route begins here.

Ski Park Osvětimany rents ski and snowboard equipment and offers ski and snowboard lessons for complete beginners, children and advanced skiers. A 400 m long slope with an elevation difference of 98 m is available for skiing and snowboarding.

The Osvětimany Reservoir lies in the valley of the Klimentský potok near Osvětimany. The water surface covers 10.5 ha and is suitable for swimming, peaceful canoeing and fishing.

When planning a stay in Osvětimany, hotel offers can be compared objectively. The exact location, type of accommodation and stated occupancy should be checked. Included services, individual price components, and the booking and cancellation conditions are also relevant. Visitors can view and compare the offers, while ensuring that all the points important to them are clearly stated. The specific information in the respective open offer remains decisive, rather than any general expectation of the stay.
