Jíloviště – Hiking, Sports and History

Jíloviště combines nature, sports and history into a diverse destination in the Podbrdsko region. The town is considered one of the starting points for tourism in this region. If you would like to combine different interests during your stay, you will find specific options here: a hike across the Černolické skály, a public sports facility and traces of the historic Golden Road. This picture is complemented by historic vehicles, distinctive elevations and destinations in the wider regional area.

Historic Routes and Distinctive Destinations in the Surrounding Area

Jíloviště was situated on one of the main roads of the Kingdom of Bohemia, the historic Golden Road. Merchants, marching armies and processions travelled along this route. Even today, this historical connection can be linked to a specific route: Route 4, “Along the Royal Trail”, begins at the crossroads near the Jíloviště municipal office and follows the red-marked cycle path in the direction of Černolice. The immediate surroundings include Vršky Hill [Klínec] and Babka Hill [Černošice]. Doutnáč Mountain and Karlštejn Castle are located in the vicinity of Jíloviště. The wider regional area also includes the Palác Kinských palace, The Golz-Kinsky Palace, the Galerie Rudolfinum museum and Veslařský ostrov island. The range therefore extends from historic routes and elevations to cultural destinations.

Hiking across the Černolické skály

The hike from Jíloviště across the Černolické skály can follow an 11-kilometre route to Všenory or a 17-kilometre continuation to Dobřichovice. The two routes therefore offer different frameworks for planning your day: the shorter option limits the distance, while the longer continuation covers more ground. The hike is predominantly flat and leads through a natural setting. This allows you to compare the distance and terrain before setting out.

Public Sports Facility with Various Areas

The public sports facility in Jíloviště includes a workout area, a children's playground, a pump track, an artificial multi-purpose court for small-sided football and tennis, a circular path, parking spaces and a grass area. The various areas combine exercise, play and time outdoors in one location. The facility is free to access. Admission to the artificial multi-purpose court is subject to a fee; payment can be made through the municipality's online payment system. The sports facility is open from April to October. Under favourable conditions, it may also be open in winter, so use depends on the seasonal period and the conditions at the time.

Historic Vehicles and Local Culture

The Zbraslav–Jíloviště hill climb is now continued as a two-day gathering of historic vehicles. At the Zbraslav–Jíloviště gathering, spectators can enjoy vehicle exhibitions, practice and competition hill-climb runs, an orienteering drive and a sociable evening with music; admission is free. A Catholic Mass was also announced for May 2026 in the Chapel-Belfry of St. Florian in Jíloviště. In addition to the landscape and outdoor activities, vehicle history, shared experiences and local religious culture are therefore also available for travel planning.
