    The hike begins in Horní Orlice, where you’ll join the marked “Hraběcí stezka” loop trail. The first few kilometers follow forest paths with a gentle incline.

    After overcoming the initial climb, the trail reaches the ridge, where you’ll be treated to beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. This is the perfect spot for a short break to enjoy the panoramic views.

    This is followed by a descent toward Dolní Hedeč, where you can stop for refreshments. The terrain here is varied, rocky in places, but still comfortable for walking.

    The loop concludes with a return to Horní Orlice. Overall, the route is moderately challenging and manageable even for less experienced hikers, who will appreciate the views and peaceful forest sections.

    Author’s recommendation

    Take advantage of the peaceful ridge section to take a longer break and enjoy the panoramic views of the surrounding area.
