Fishermen's Loop in Vodňansko
Discover the beauty of Vodňansko from the saddle of an e-bike. No hill is an obstacle – you decide the length of your route or follow one of the recommended routes through Vodňansko.
This circular route was designed to showcase the natural and historical diversity of Vodňansko, with a special emphasis on its fish farming and fishing tradition.
The southern section (a less demanding variant) leads through the villages of Újezd and Hvožďany to Na Lázni, part of the Chelčice municipality. From there, the trail continues to Libějovické Svobodné Hory. The route then heads north toward Křepice, reaching the junction at Vodňanské Svobodné Hory and continuing to the settlement of Pražák. The final stretch winds its way between Vodňany’s fishponds and mills back to Vodňany.
