Article Trip to Rychory
A beautiful circular tour east of the Krkonoše Mountains
Rýchory is the easternmost part of the Giant Mountains. They are also the lowest and probably the least visited part of the mountain range. That makes it even more pleasant to wander around the beautiful meadows with a view of Sněžka or Vraní hory. The circuit described here is about 28 kilometers long, and you can walk practically the whole of Rýchory.
From Svoboda nad Úpou to the ridge
The ideal starting point for this round trip is Svoboda na Úpou. From there, you will immediately face the biggest climb up to Rýhorská bouda. From there we will go over the highest point of Rýhor – Dvorský les to the beautiful view of Sněžná domka.

Rýchory is the easternmost part of the Krkonoše mountains with the highest peak Dvorský les.

Hike through Dvorský les
Over the highest place Rychor
The highest peak of Rýhor (the easternmost part of the Giant Mountains) is the flat peak of Dvorský les (1,036m). The peak itself has no view, but it attracts photographers because of the unique beech forest with variously twisted trees. If you're here in the fog, you'll feel like you're in a fairytale landscape. In addition, you will also find here a part of the military fortifications built before the Second World War. To the east of the summit you will find a beautiful meadow with views – Sněžné domky continue reading
