I would like to give you here on the blog some tips for trips in the Czech Republic and today I will look at the queen of the Beskydy mountains in the east of the Czech Republic = Lysa Hora.

This place has become the most famous place in the Moravian-Silesian region in recent years and every visitor who comes here hikes up this mountain. This also corresponds to the number of people and therefore I don’t spend much time here.

However, there is the most beautiful view to all sides of the world and if they report an inversion here it is something unforgettable. In addition, you can approach the mountain from all sides and there are many trails leading here.

I currently like this one the best, which I will introduce in the lines below, but for better comfort and availability of parking is from the city of Ostravice

Information about the trail

  • Distance: 5.4 km (10.8km total)
  • Elevation: 708m
  • Accessibility: Terrain difficulty Medium. However, a longer but easier walk for wheelchairs and strollers…
