Journey to the mythical mount Tábor.
Discover the beauty of the Bechyně region from the seat of an e-bike. No hill is an obstacle, and it’s up to you how long route you choose, or whether you follow one of the suggested routes in the Bechyně area.
The goal of this route is a visit to a unique cult site on Burkovák Hill (also known as Mount Tábor). In the Middle Ages, this place was full of religious gatherings. Years ago, a replica of a megalithic structure – a stone circle – was built here. This circle offers visitors not only beautiful views but also the opportunity for healing and spiritual strengthening.
