Although Semily is the smallest district town in the Czech Republic, they still offer several attractions to see and visit. But mainly it is a good starting point for hikes along the Jizera. Let's see what can be seen here

Rieger Square in Semily

The historic center of Semily is located east of the river Jizera. We can start our tour of the city, for example, on Rieger Square, which is the most famous native of Semily

Comenius Square in Semily

We ascend to Comenius Square, where there is the Marian Column and a nice view of the church tower. This basically got us to the edge of the city center and we can go back another way.

Bridge over the Jizera

From the log cabins we head about 600 meters back to the bridge over the Jizera. We leave the historic center of Semily and head to the relaxation zone along the Jizera
