Five tips for day trips around the Podblanicko region that you can explore on foot, by bike, or by car, starting right from Načeradec Castle.
Načeradec is situated in a landscape where history blends with nature, and where a new story lies hidden behind every hill. We’ve put together five excursions for you that you can easily reach directly from our castle—whether on foot, by bike, or by car.
- Mount Blaník (6 km) – This mountain, steeped in legend and where, according to folklore, the Knights of Blaník sleep, is just six kilometers from the castle. The forest trail will reward you with views of the entire Podblanicko region and the feeling that you have touched something ancient.
- The Ruins of Šelmberk Castle (12 km) – These romantic ruins on a hill overlooking the landscape are the perfect destination for an afternoon stroll. The remnants of the walls and towers tell stories of the Middle Ages, and the view from them is worth every step.
- Kalamajka Lookout Tower (15 km) – Panoramic views of the Podblanicko region and, in good weather, all the way to the Alps. The climb is easy and suitable even for families with children.
- Jemniště Castle (22 km) – A Baroque gem surrounded by an English-style park. Guided tours reveal the opulent interiors and the story of one of the most beautiful castles in Central Bohemia.
- Český Šternberk Castle (32 km) – A massive medieval castle towering above the Sázava River. A tour of the castle and the surrounding countryside will transport you back centuries.
Each of these excursions is a reason to stay in Načeradec one day longer.
