A short hike from Přerov nad Labem

The ideal starting point for a walk is the parking lot opposite the beautiful, but unfortunately desolate castle

In the park, right next to the castle is an interesting chapel of St. Trinity. Unfortunately, vandal sprays can also be found here

Right next to the chateau is the local most visited place, the Elbe open-air museum. Now we set off on a yellow hiking trail (just a moment) overlooking the church of St. Adalbert

The path leads for a while along the open-air museum and there is quite a lot to see through the fence. After some 100 meters we leave the main road and along the green tourist route (Pilgrimage route Blaník – Říp) we go west, away from the town

Now we have a longer journey along a dirt road with rear views of the Přerov Mountain (237 m above sea level), one of several table mountains towering over the surrounding flat landscape. We will look at it at the end of the circuit

Finally, we have the field behind us and we enter the floodplain forest, which falls into the nature reserve Káraný – Hrbáčkovy tůně. In spring, a lot of rare plants bloom here. Budečská plays through the forest, which used to protect Přerov from floods. In the forest you will find several ponds and sunny meadows

After about two kilometers from Přerov Castle we come to the Elbe. Here we leave the tourist route and continue in a circuit upstream along the bike path

We walk along the Elbe for about 1.3 km. In places where the lock begins to be seen on the horizon, the cycle path turns inland towards back to Přerov

The road leads to the border of the forest and the field, so we had a view of Přerovská hůra from the other side

Just before Přerov we leave the cycle path and follow the footpath to go around two interesting ponds. The first of them is Bobinecká

Next door is the Bottomless Pool

After bypassing the pond, we get to the main road and head back. If you feel like it, definitely follow the yellow hiking trail to Přerovská hůra. If not, after a while you will come back to the castle opposite, which is a nice Salvátorský pond
