A perfect itinerary for lovers of folklore and local delicacies. Get inspired, whether you're travelling with a mobile home or looking for a new destination for weekend getaways.
Before hitting the road, it's crucial to stock up. Therefore, it's worth starting with a shopping stop at Ráječek Farm right on the outskirts of Brno, where you can buy fresh vegetables, fruits, and other goodies. After all, nobody wants to be hungry on a trip!
Onward for exploration! Begin at the Arboretum in Němčičky. You'll encounter a barefoot trail, a self-service refreshment stand in a cave, plenty of games and puzzles,... all in a beautiful natural setting.
Continue where the sun rises. Sonnentor, or Sun Gate, welcomes you. The fragrant kingdom of herbs overlooks all of Čejkovice and the surrounding rolling landscape. During the tour, learn about the company's story, which is committed to ecology and sustainable use of natural resources. Taste their specialties right in the café and give the children time to discover what the large garden holds.
From Čejkovice, it's not far to Mutěnice. Among the "mutěnické búdy," as the wine cellars are called here, you'll find the hidden Winerie Zimolka. Have a glass or two, and with this refreshment, climb up to the Vyšicko lookout tower on the hill above the village. The path leads through picturesque vineyards, and the sunset will be worth it!
After breakfast, it's time to head to Plže! Don't worry, we're not going snail hunting. Instead, we're off to Plže, a charming village with a name that just happens to mean "snails" in Czech.
This picturesque community of white cellars with blue foundations can be found in Petrov near Strážnice. Take a stroll through this delightful cellar village and savour a glass of sparkling wine from one of the skilled vintners.
Petrov also boasts a harbour on the Baťa Canal, where regular boat trips depart during the season. If you're feeling adventurous, you can even rent a boat and take the helm yourself.
Begin your day by visiting an indigo dyeing workshop, where you'll gain insights into this traditional craft and even have the opportunity to try the ornaments’ print.
Continue to Salaš Travičná (Hut), a nature reserve perched atop a hill overlooking Radějov. This exemplary natural garden features a small museum of Kopaničář log cabins and an abundance of farm animals. Each year in September, the Oskeruše (service tree) festival takes place here.
If you're feeling energetic, hop on a bike and embark on a cycling adventure to visit the remaining two wineries from the "Tři vinaři" (Three Winemakers) project: wineries - Víno Roseta in Radějov and Vinařství Uřičář. The Oskerušová (service tree) Educational Trail will guide you along the way.
It looks like the Netherlands, but it's... good old Moravia! The windmill in Kuželov, the only Dutch-style mill in Moravia, will delight you. Another fantastic stop is the nearby stylish Radošov lookout tower, shaped like a wine glass.
Feeling hungry? Kyjov Brewery will surprise you with its unconventional choice. You can tour the behind-the-scenes of beer production, and they even have beer spas.
After lunch, it's time for a sweet treat. Taste excellent coffee, wine, or beer at the Pražírna Kyjov (Roastery) and refill your energy with some tasty snacks. Take home some freshly roasted coffee from the brand Zrna, whose mascot is a deer. And it's excellent.
If you're heading out on a camper van trip, we're adding overnight stay tips: Camp San Marco Mutěnice, Camp Strážnice, Autocamp Lučina.
Significant events unfolded, within the historical backdrop of Znojmo, enough to write a 100-chapter long chronicle. After all, Znojmo was granted the status of a royal city by Přemysl Otakar I as early as 1226. However, what many current residents may not know is that one of the pivotal battles in European history associated with Napoleon took place here!
