Discover Čistá V Krkonoších: Rudník Between Panoramas, Trails and History

Anyone planning a trip to Čistá V Krkonoších will find in Rudník a combination of impressive panoramic views, clearly described routes and remarkable local history. This offers families with children, cyclists and those interested in culture a variety of ways to get to know the region.

Panoramic views and an easy walking trail

Panoramic views of Černá hora open up from many places in Rudník. The view of the distinctive mountain provides a clear sense of the landscape during a stay, without requiring a demanding excursion programme. Another specific option is the 3 km route from Rudník to Lázně Fořt. It is an easy walking trail and suitable for families with children. This route therefore combines a manageable length with an explicitly stated suitability for shared outings with younger travellers.

Cycling connections and a route with tasks

Rudník also offers a connection for exploring by bicycle: The U Křížku / “Pastviny” route connects to the KČT cycling trail 4298 in the Terezín district. This cycling trail connects Hostinné and Prostřední Lánov. The 3 km route to Lázně Fořt remains an easy walking trail for families with children; the cycling connection via Terezín, on the other hand, links Rudník to the cycling trail between Hostinné and Prostřední Lánov. Thus, the short route for walking and the connection for cyclists differ not only in terms of the mode of transport, but also in their respective connections to local places.

Another way to discover the surrounding area is the Krakonošův ranec route between Janské Lázně and Rudník. It includes 11 tasks. The route thus connects two places through a series of specific tasks and focuses on something different from the walking trail or the cycling connection alone.

Evangelical Church and Silbersteinů Castle

The Evangelical Church is part of Rudník’s cultural heritage. It was solemnly consecrated on 24 July 1786, making it the oldest Protestant church in the eastern Giant Mountains. The complete date and historical classification give the building a special significance within the history of the village.

Another striking building is Silbersteinů Castle in Rudník. It is a pseudo-Gothic building known as “little Hluboká.” This designation in particular makes clear that the castle is perceived not only as a historic building, but also as an architectural motif in its own right.

Orientation at the Infocentre

The Infocentre in Rudník provides information about sights, history and interesting places in the region. It also sells maps, souvenirs and mementoes.
