After a hike you will be rewarded with a beautiful view from a lookout tower – in good weather you can see all the way to the peaks of the Alps. Replenish your strength at the Horské chaty Kleť Restaurant with its famous garlic soup or another of the local specialities, in winter only on weekends. Enjoy the return trip downhill on scooters.
Route
Český Krumlov → Kleť 4,5 km
You can take a walk from Krumlov via the train station from Vyšný. From there, you will enjoy a 4.5 km long hike from Vyšný to the top of Kleť with an elevation difference of 443 m. Prepare for an approximately 2-hour walk on a paved forest path that is very well marked. As a starting point we recommend the Nový Dvůr parking lot (on the map "Start"), where you can park for free. From here, follow the blue hiking trail and after half an hour you will arrive at the Blue Painting (map point 2), where you can relax in the covered seating area. You will follow the blue trail toward the destination, then, 1.3 km before the summit you will turn left (map point 3) and take the red trail, that leads directly to the mountain hut on the top of Kleť.
And how will you get down? You can walk back, rent a kickbike and if you are hiking in the winter, you can even use the sledge!
If walking is not your cup of tea, you can use the chair lift from Krasetín that will take you to the top of the hill. Take the I/39 in the direction of České Budějovice and turn left onto III/1439 in Přísečná. Follow this road to Holubov (2) and continue to the car park in Krasetín (3). The lift station is right next to the carpark.
