Singltrek pod Smrkem

The Singltrek trails around Mount Smrk are the first of their kind in the Czech Republic and continental Europe. These trails follow old routes that were created in the early 20th century. They meander among the trees, and never run level, uphill or downhill for long. They fully respect the woodland environment but are designed for you to enjoy your ride to the max. The trails also lead across the slopes of Mount Smrk, which at 1,124m is the highest mountain in the Czech part of the Jizera Mountains.

Rides for beginners, children, and the disabled

Whether you are almost joined at the hip with your mountain bike or are a novice rider, these Singltrek trails are gauged according to difficulty, and there’s a one for everyone. The green trail is best for beginners, children and the disabled, with gentle slopes, no obstacles and wider surfaces. This can provide a perfect opportunity to teach the kids how to ride. If you’ve mastered the mountain bike riding technique, but don’t feel confident enough to tackle more challenging terrain, the blue trail is for you. This trail has no mean climbs or ascents, but undulates and is fun, safe and completely clear of impediments.
