Directions

The leisurely walk starts at the Church of St Paul and Peter in Růžová. From there, the path to the Hut Hill with its unusual lookout tower is perfectly signposted with a green slash. The tower is made of concrete and resembles a UFO. The observation tower is also known locally as the "nipple". In a few years' time, the tower will be surrounded by greenery as ivy grows alongside roses on a surrounding trellis.The circular route with the red triangle then continues across colourful mountain meadows to a "lost place", the former Protestant church in Růžová. An almost derelict ruin overgrown with dense greenery. The walk continues along a nature trail, which is particularly exciting with children. The circular route then takes you past a former cemetery and a windmill, which is now rented out as accommodation. The red triangular trail leads past a pump track and a paddock back to Růžová and the Church of St Paul and St Peter.
