Nová Ves U Leštiny

Nová Ves u Leštiny between Church, Railway and Family Experiences

Nová Ves u Leštiny offers different starting points for a trip: a small local attraction, a railway station on an important railway line and a seasonal destination with unusual activities for children. If you are looking for accommodation and want to consider not only where you will stay but also specific experiences, the town can be explored particularly through these three aspects.

Culture in the Town

Nová Ves u Leštiny is home to the branch church of Saint Procopius, the abbot. There is also an interesting relief at the church. This gives the town a cultural connection that can be experienced independently of the seasonal events programme. The church and the relief provide your stay with a distinct local character and complement the experience-oriented offerings with a quieter reason to explore the town.

Travelling by Train

Nová Ves u Leštiny railway station is located on line 230 “(Praha -) Kolín – Havlíčkův Brod”. This specific route is relevant when planning your journey if you are also considering the town from the perspective of its railway connection.

Dýňový svět at Statek u Pipků

A notable seasonal highlight is Dýňový svět at Statek u Pipků. The event takes place annually from mid-September to early November. During this period, visitors can carve pumpkins into Halloween figures according to their own ideas. This makes the visit an activity that you can shape yourself rather than merely a sightseeing trip: you take away not only impressions but can also create your own pumpkin design.

The gardens of Statek u Pipků include a nature playground with attractions made of wood and straw. A wooden maze is part of this playground and complements the other stations with a task centred on orientation and discovery. Under supervision, children may also climb onto a combine harvester at Statek u Pipků. Supervision is expressly part of the activity as described and should be taken into account when making your own plans.

The visit also includes the opportunity to observe sheep, goats, horses, a pony, a piglet and rabbits up close. The various animal species add a direct encounter with animals to the programme. Dýňový svět also offers pumpkins suitable for cooking. In this way, the seasonal offering combines creative activities, a nature playground, animal observation and a culinary aspect.

Other Places to Consider When Planning Your Trip

If you would also like to consider other places, you can include Maleč, Lípa, Uhelná Příbram, Dolní Krupá U Havlíckova Brodu, Herálec, Kynice, Slavětín and Jilem in your plans. Nová Ves u Leštiny therefore has a clear focus on local culture, railway access and the seasonal family offering of Dýňový svět.
