Abertamy, luxury cross country skiing with kids

Near from the center of Abertamy (Farni street) there is a Parking for technical service - starting point for ski trails(50.3708408N, 12.8152561E). There is more trials starting from there and all very well prepared. By sunny wather it is full of families and not only. One of the favurit stops on the way is bar near Červené jámy to get some drinks and snacks. Smaller or non-cross-country-skiining you can take on the sledge. We were lucky to have a sunny wather and it was a fairy tail - around half of the tail are on the open areas so you are in the full Sun. Second half is in the forest.

Skiing on Plešivec (Pleßberg)

Even thought this winter was warm and with little snowfall on Plesivec the trials with artificial snowing were open (at the beginning of march) and one could enjoy the snow and sun together. The conditions there are perfect for the families with small and bigger kids (small hill for kids to learn and indoor play room to get rest).

Blatensky vrch

Blatensky vrch is 1043 m high pick in the Ore Mountains. To the pick goes short and easy walk from Horni Blatna main square. On the way there is ice hole and wolf pit (holes left after mining industry extracting tin and iron in the area of the mountain) and the observation tower on the pick. Nice walk suitable for kids.

Skiing in Mikulov (German: Niklasberg)

Mikulov (German: Niklasberg) is a village in Teplice District surrounded by hills. Although not very high (869 m a.s.l.) are quite steep and offer also routes sharply going down. Near the bottom stations are places for beginner to learn. Additinaly there are many routs for Ski touring. Refer to the details on the area web page.

Loucna (Mountain)

Loučná (956 m) is the highest point in east side of Ore Mountains and, exceptionally for this region, not covered with forest. Thank to it there is beautiful view of the valley. We reached the pick walking from Dlouha Louka along the blue touristic path. It is possible to go with pram, but only some more train one (e.g. like our Red Castle Sport)

Komáří hůrka: unusal hill

Komáří hůrka hill fall down into valley with Telpice in the steepest section of Ore Mountains. Thank to it, the visitors have splendid view and for example amateur radio operation possibilities. It the hill are old mines (also oped for visitors), skying lift, ruins of old castle, forests, fire places. On the pick is old hotel with delicious, traditional Czech kitchen.

Cross-country skiing from Boží Dar (Gottesgab)

In Boží Dar (situated in the Ore Mountains) starts many cross-country skiing trails. We decided for Jeziskova cesta (Christkindweg), 13 km long. On the way there are 13 stations with the description (in Czech and German) of the fairy tail creatures and tasks for children what gives them perfect motivation to continue further. The best is to start in Turist Information Office in Bozi Dar take the map of the road and buy a small notebook about the trail where children can write down the solutions of the tasks and get a small present at the end (back in the IT).

Skiing on Plešivec (Plessbarg)

On Plešivec we enjoyed a perfect conditions for skiing with children. There is prepared a band also for the smallest (e.g. 3 years old) and playground above the restaurant to take a rest. It is worth recommending to take a rest in the restaurant on the pick of Plešivec and admire the view from the tower.
