Route description
Come and go on the Bear Trail and meet seven bear friends.
At the bottom station of the Medvědín cable car, you buy a so-called bear ticket for the cable car and ask for a map with a description of the route and a pencil that you will need. You take the cable car up and look for seven stops on the marked trail and bear signs at the indicated places, on which you place the field at the bottom of the map and hatch the bears with a pencil.
On the way, you will visit two beautiful viewpoints - Šmíd's Lookout and Harrach's Rock.
You will be rewarded with unique views of the Giant Mountains and Špindlerův Mlýn.
