Suchý between the swimming pond and the Drahany Highlands

Suchý combines a pond with bathing facilities, extensive forests and hilly terrain with routes and excursion destinations. This combination is suitable for different kinds of holiday days: you can combine water and landscape, explore cycling routes or choose cultural attractions in the surrounding area.

Pond, forest and hilly landscape

Bathing is possible in the 6-hectare pond in Suchý. Around the village, Suchý is surrounded by the extensive forests of the Drahany Highlands, which offer views across the landscape, especially to the west. This brings together a specific place for spending time by the water and a vast landscape.

The terrain around Suchý is hilly and therefore more challenging. The surrounding forests are crossed by marked cycling routes, which mostly run along paved paths. The Hradec Králové–Břeclav cycle route passes through Suchý. In addition, the Žďárná–Skály–Suchý educational trail route passed through the village. The hilly terrain makes choosing a route suited to your own fitness an important part of planning the day. The paved sections provide specific guidance when choosing routes, while the marked paths enable various excursions through the forests. Those planning for several generations or different interests can therefore choose between swimming, cycling and walks with scenic views without losing sight of the cultural attractions.

Active days and practical information

The campsite has a new, high-quality court for tennis and nohejbal. It is in operation and must be reserved at the information centre. The Suchý Information Centre provides tourist information on cycling and cross-country skiing routes, tourist attractions, excursion tips, accommodation and dining establishments, as well as transport connections. The information on cycling and cross-country skiing routes, attractions and excursion tips connects active pursuits with cultural attractions. Information on accommodation, dining establishments and transport connections complements this guidance when planning a day with several stops. You can therefore find information there on various topics relating to your stay when planning individual days.
