Ascent to Veliš
Outlook of the Czech Paradise
Veliš hill (429 m asl) is the best and surprisingly little forgotten outlook point to Jičín basin, the Czech Paradise, Giant Mountains and immense Elbe plain in the south. Although it is lying on yellow tourist trail leading from Jičín to Ostružno (approx 6.5 km from the center of town), most people go by car to the village of Podhradí lying in the pass of the Veliš ridge – from here it is only a few minutes to the top. A popular option is to combine this short ascent up the hill with a cycling trip through the area of St. Mary's Garden. continue reading
