Lačnov: Hotels and accommodation

A yellow-marked hiking trail leads from Lačnov to the Lačnovské skály rock formations. The rocks can only be reached on foot and are not suitable for prams or strollers.

Nature

The Lačnovské skály are a group of sandstone rock formations in the summit area of Mount Vrátnice and on its southern slopes towards Lačnov. The Lačnov Nature Monument is located in the Vizovická vrchovina highlands, on the western edge of Lačnov’s built-up area, behind the kindergarten. It was first designated on 21 September 1948.

In the vicinity of Lačnov lies the Sucháčkovy paseky Nature Monument, approximately 1 kilometre to the southeast on the right-hand valley slope of the Lačnovský potok stream. It consists of a flower-rich meadow with numerous specimens of the specially protected white-flowered crocus.

Trails

The 16-kilometre Naučná stezka Vařákovy paseky educational trail passes through Lačnov and includes 15 information stations. The route begins at Horní Lideč railway station and then leads via the Lačnovské rybníky ponds to Lačnov. The Lačnovské rybníky ponds are home to a fishing centre visited by anglers from the wider surrounding area.

A 3.5-kilometre trail leads from the Muzeum Vařákovy paseky to the original settlement site; a forest playground is also located along the way.

History and culture

The timber-framed farmstead at no. 13 in Lačnov is a historic monument arranged around a square courtyard. It comprises a dwelling house, a stable with a hayloft, a barn and a chamber. One of the farmstead’s beams bears the date 1811.

The Roman Catholic Church of Panny Marie Královny nebe a země in Lačnov dates from 1969 to 1971 and is a filial church in the Valašské Klobouky deanery.

The permanent exhibition at the Muzeum Vařákovy paseky in Lačnov commemorates the tragic destruction of the Vařákovy paseky settlement by fire at the end of the Second World War. The museum displays reconstructions of original Wallachian buildings, including a dwelling hut, a barn and farm buildings. Visitors can also view a dwelling hut, a farm building, a stable, a drying hut and a cellar there.
