A very beautiful route that we always enjoy taking and at the end we are rewarded with a stop at the Blauer Hirsch snack bar.

Schwarzenberg Canal Cycle Route

Highlight • Cycleway

There is a small wonder of the world in the Bohemian Forest - the Schwarzenberg canal. Forestry engineer Josef Rosenauer had the idea of transporting wood from the Bohemian Forest to Vienna and this was made possible by the construction of the Schwarzenberg canal. The Schwarzenberg canal is a timber canal over 50 kilometers long that was built in the 18th century and used commercially until the 20th century.

Wessenbach sluice

Highlight • Monument

The Wessenbach lock regulated the water inflow from the Wessenbach for the canal. The Schwarzenberg canal was fed with water from 27 streams and the Plöckensteiner Lake. Three artificial reservoirs were created to secure the water supply.

Lipno Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Lipno reservoir (Moldau reservoir) is located on the Czech border with Austria in the "Bohemian Forest National Park and Landscape Conservation Area". With a length of around 30 km and a maximum width of around 6 km, the lake is the largest lake in the Czech Republic and a meeting point for swimmers, divers and other water sports enthusiasts. A beautiful cycle path leads around the lake, which always offers a great view of the Lipno.
