Lipno Ferry (Bližší Lhota–Horní Planá)

Highlight • Bridge

The ferry connection allows beautiful cycling tours at the reservoir, while translating you can enjoy the magnificent panorama. The ticket solution at the machine did not work quite faulty, but we had a helper to the side.

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.

super nice bike tour. mostly in the shadow of the bicycle u. roadways. on the south u. east side everywhere access to the water. On the north side, however, there is no cycle path, you have to cycle up and down the narrow country road. On the whole, but highly recommended!

View of Frymburk and Lipno Reservoir

Highlight • Viewpoint

Frymburk is definitely worth a visit. Here you can take a nice rest right by the lake. There are benches at the ferry dock.

In our opinion, the tour is more enjoyable from a technical perspective. The two steep sections at the beginning and the easier section (except for the two final climbs with poor surface (rough asphalt)) at the end.

The tour was very varied in terms of landscape. There were also quite a few meters of elevation gain. It almost even became a complete circuit around the Lipno reservoir.
