Winter ascent to St. Anne's

We start the walk in Ostružno, where you can park by a pretty impressive church. Tip for photographers – it is especially nicely lit in the late afternoon

From the church, we head west along the road leading to the Sklář swimming pool. Right behind the last houses, we have a view of the destination of our walk – the hill of St. Anna

In the places where the road starts to turn, just opposite a lonely tree in the middle of a field, we leave it and go straight to the hill. Maybe there will be a footprint from someone, maybe you will have to go first, so it depends a lot on the state of the snow, whether this passage through the field will be pleasant or hell

Head to the western end of the grove, because there you will find a path leading to the top of the hill

When you ascend the terrain wave, you will also have a view of the other side, where Dolní Lochov lies below the hill, a closer starting point to this hill.

We climb the path to the top. Thanks to the fact that the trees are without leaves, the chapel at the top can be seen from a distance

Finally we stand on top and we can see an interesting chapel. However, the views from the top are not even in winter. For them you have to climb below the level of the top grove

We descend eastwards along the road. finally we come out of the forest and a beautiful view of the Jičín basin opens up to us

From the hill you can go through the snowy fields basically directly to the starting point of this walk. Maybe cross-country skiers will tell you. On the horizon you can see the most beautiful view far and wide – Veliš hill
