Vysoká: Hiking Route, Nature Boards and Regional Excursions

Vysoká combines a documented history with a hiking route to a scenic summit and nature boards at special sites. The first written mention of the municipality of Hohentann (Vysoká) dates back to 1308. The KČT hiking route leads to the Vysoká scenic summit at 585 metres above sea level. You can discover the place from a historical perspective, choose the summit as your hiking destination or combine the nature boards with other destinations in the surrounding area. These different approaches provide a clear framework for your stay without limiting it to a single activity.

History and Route Selection

The history of the place and the choice of route can be combined. The KČT hiking route can be shortened to Mírovka at 13.5 kilometres or to Pohled at 18 kilometres. There is a train connection at both endpoints. This provides two different lengths for planning the route: 13.5 kilometres as the shorter option and 18 kilometres as the longer one. The train connection at both endpoints is therefore relevant when choosing the route. This allows you to arrange the route according to your preferred distance while also planning the Vysoká scenic summit as the shared destination of the hike.

Nature Boards and Regional Orientation

The “Ptáci na krmítku” nature board is located in the village square in front of house no. 6 in Vysoká. The “Rybník” nature board is located at Novosvětský rybník pond. Both boards are situated in clearly distinct locations: one in the village square and one at the pond. The village centre and the body of water are therefore two different observation points in Vysoká. The Vysoká mountain is also located in the immediate surroundings of Vysoká. In the wider regional area lie the Orlík ruins, Rosička Mountain, Světka Mountain, Blažkov Mountain and Želivský Kláštor Monastery.

Walks, Horseback Riding and Cycling

The area around Vysoká is suitable for sightseeing walks. Vysoká Riding Club offers agrotourism in the form of horseback rides through the countryside. Cyclists can use the Havlíčkův Brod – Okrouhlička – Vysoká – Havlíčkův Brod cycling loop, which is 25.5 kilometres long. Smetanovy sady is also located in the wider regional area around Vysoká. Walking, horseback riding and cycling differ in pace and form of movement. This allows you to focus your day on a gentle walk, a horseback ride or a 25.5-kilometre cycling loop. These activities complement the hiking route with further opportunities to experience Vysoká and the surrounding region.

If you are looking for a hotel in Vysoká, you can tailor your research to your preferred type of stay: the KČT hiking route with its two route lengths, the nature boards in the village, walks, horseback riding or the 25.5-kilometre cycling loop. Regional discoveries can also include the Orlík ruins, the mountains of Rosička, Světka and Blažkov, Želivský Kláštor Monastery and Smetanovy sady. The local history, destinations in the village and excursions in the wider regional area thus offer different focuses for planning your trip.
