Through the Czech-Canadian borderland

The cycling route “Through the Czech-Canadian borderland” starts at the square in Nová Bystřice, from where you head along CT1008 between the Mnišský and Novobystřice ponds and, after passing through the golf course, turn right and carefully enter road II/128, but after 400 meters you leave it with CT1008 by turning left this time. After about one kilometer, CT1008 brings you to the Artolec shelter, where at the crossroads, by turning right, you say goodbye to CT1008 and take the purpose-built road to the Austrian village of Hirschenschlag. Here you turn left and join the Grenzlandradweg cycle route and travel south along it for three kilometers to the village of Reingers, at the end of which you turn left onto a local road that leads you to the Austrian-Czech border. From here, CT1007B is available, but you leave it after less than one kilometer at a place where it turns sharply left, but you continue straight and after a few hundred meters reach the dam of the Romavský pond. Behind the pond you turn left again, cross the Romavský stream, and after less than a kilometer, after touching CT1007B, you turn right and after 400 meters reach the dam of the Kačer (Walden) pond. From there, after about a kilometer of riding, you arrive at the crossroads of the Hadí vrch nature reserve, where you turn left and descend a gentle slope along the western boundary of the Hadí vrch nature reserve, down to a bridge over the Romavský stream and then after about a kilometer of gentle climbing, by turning right, you join CT1007B again and after 1.5 km you turn right onto CT1007 that leads you to the village of Návary. Here you leave CT1007 by turning left onto a local road that leads you to CT1006, onto which you turn left, pass through the settlement of Filipov, the Gebhárecký pond nature reserve and all the way to Klášter I. There you cross road II/152a on Grassel’s trail, along the eastern edge of the recreational Osika pond, continuing to the settlements of Blato and Hůrky. From here Grassel’s trail leads you over Kaliště hill to Ovčárna and back to Nová Bystřice.
