Selected alternatives for you
    The cycling route takes you through the easternmost tip of the South Bohemian region – the Dačicko area. Besides the historically and culturally interesting town of Dačice, you will also see other historically significant places, such as the pilgrimage church of Our Lady of Montserrat, the town of Slavonice, or you can run barefoot across the stubble field in Nové Sady near Písečné. Anyway, you will enjoy a beautiful trip...

    Roadbook

    From the center of Dačice at the post office, you follow CT1006, which runs together with CT1242 until Toužín, where it branches off to the left. You will continue along the maintained field path with CT1006 to the village of Urbaneč and then further along the field path to Cizkrajov. The field path is often muddy after rains; in such cases, choose the road variant via Peč. At the beginning of Cizkrajov, turn left off CT1006 and take the asphalt road with CT1002 through the neat village called Holešice to Mutná. Near Mutná, you can visit the famous pilgrimage church of Our Lady of Sorrows, called Montserrat. From Mutná, CT1002 leads you about one kilometer along a terrain trail (there is also a suitable road alternative - see map) and then connects you by turning right to the second-class road towards Slavonice. After 300 m along the road, turn left onto a field path that after about one kilometer leads you to the village of Chvaletín; here, by the Chapel of the Virgin Mary, turn right and follow the CT Sacred Architecture route to arrive in less than a kilometer at Slavětín. Here, you again join CT1002, which takes you along the state border to Písečné. After viewing the exterior of the Renaissance castle, you can make a short detour from the route along CT1001 to the village of Nové Sady, the filming location of the film Barefoot. From Písečné to Modletice, you can either take the road via CT1002 or the shorter variant via a field path - the yellow KČT trail. From Modletice, continue along CT1002 through Nové Hobzí to Janov, where you diverge to the right from CT1002 and go through Veselíčko to Staré Hobzí. Here, you join CT16, which leads you north through Vnorovice and Hradišťko back to Dačice.
