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.

Cross-country skiing in Świeradów Zdrój

Lots of turist go from Świeradów Zdrój by Gondola up the hill to Stóg Izerski. They look around and go back. But there are so grate possibilities. One of them it take an advantage of cross country skiining paths. The terrain on the top is very gentle and suitable also for beginners. We took cross-country skiing path from Stóg Izerski through Polana Izerska to Chata Górzystów and back down to Świeradów Zdrój, together 19 km in 6 hours with 8 years old. Definitely to recommend, specially that you can take a rest in Chta Górzystów in the great atmosphere by fireplace and delicious food.

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).
