Between fields and vineyards

The trip starts at the train station in Hrušovany nad Jevišovkou, so we can leave the car at home. We will ride along the cycle route called "Po rovince přes Nový Dvůr" to Emin's chateau, which was built in 1882 by Edvard Khuen-Belassy for his wife. The young painter Alfons Mucha contributed to some interior paintings. Today, the chateau houses a social care institute. After arriving in the village of Pravice, we can visit the Holy Trinity chapel from the late 19th century. From the village, we will take cycle route no. 5008 to the village of Březany, where there is a chateau renovated in 1818–1819 by Prince Jan Adam of Lichtenštejn. Around the chateau is a beautiful park with, among others, the Holy Trinity column and rare trees – plane and ginkgo biloba. We continue past the U Dvora pond along the cycle route called "Mezi poli a vinohrady" to the villages of Mackovice and Čejkovice, where stands the Church of Our Lady of the Snows from 1779. Further on, along cycle route no. 5008, we reach Borotice; here we turn left and follow the Znojmo wine trail to Božice. Along the way, near a gamekeeper’s house, we will pass a protected large-leaved lime tree. The village has the Božice nature monument wetland, home to many amphibians, dragonflies, and invertebrates. At the bell tower, we turn right and follow the road to the bus stop, then turn left and continue along the Údolím lásky educational trail, passing the Karlov nature reserve. Then we connect to the Mucha cycle route, which leads us back through Karlov to the train station in Hrušovany nad Jevišovkou.
