Struhařov – Trails, Forests and Regional Discoveries

Struhařov among Hiking Trails, Cycle Routes and Regional History

Struhařov is a destination for anyone who wants to combine nature experiences, physical activity and discovery in a manageable setting. The character of the area is particularly evident in its different trails: the Krásné Vyhlídky educational trail is exclusively for pedestrians, while the Hrusický okruh connects Struhařov with a cycle route. There is also a literary trail linked to Ladův’s work, as well as events with a local focus.

The Krásné Vyhlídky educational trail is a joint project of the municipalities of Mnichovice, Struhařov and Klokočná. It is 9.2 km long and has nine rest stops with benches. Its explicit restriction to pedestrians makes it a distinct hiking option, clearly different from the cycle routes. For planning your day, the set length provides a concrete guide, while the rest stops mark clear points for breaks along the trail.

The Voděradské bučiny national nature reserve is located in the nearby forests of Jevany. This means that, alongside the trails, a protected natural area is also part of the surrounding landscape. Those who want to give greater weight to the character of the landscape when choosing a travel idea will find a distinct focus here alongside the sporting and cultural attractions.

For cyclists, the 24.5-km Hrusický okruh passes through Struhařov. Maps of the Ladův kraj cycle paths are available at the Struhařov municipal office and at the Říčany information centre. A specific example of the region’s cycling tradition was the Struhařovská cyklo 30 mountain bike race on 29 August 2026. The route led through the natural areas of Struhařov, Voděradské bučiny and Klokočná; the adults’ course was approximately 30 km long, while the children’s course was approximately 15 km.

Announced events also add to the range of experiences. The 7th Struhařiáda was announced for 30 August 2026 from 3 p.m. at the football pitch in Struhařov; refreshments were planned for visitors. A historical view of the village is provided by Pavel Skřivan’s account of Struhařovská náves, written for the period of the late 19th century by the son of the local teacher.

Another connection between the landscape and regional culture is the Cesta kocoura Mikeše. The 25-km trail leads from Hrusice to Mukařov and includes 14 stops. The signs feature excerpts from Lada’s book about the cat Mikeš. For families with different interests, this literary approach can offer a different kind of shared discovery than a purely hiking or cycling tour, without requiring everyone’s daily plans to follow the same pattern.

If you are looking for accommodation in Struhařov, you can therefore base your decision on the type of trip you prefer: an educational trail intended exclusively for pedestrians, a cycle route through Struhařov, or regional cultural and event-related themes.
