Refreshments at the Štěpánka tower in season, Vokřínek bakery and the brewery in Harrachov on the way back.
The distance matches the route planned in Mapy.com; elevation gain and time are approximate. For hiking routes Mapy.com assumes a slower pace, so it may show a longer time.
A full-day loop on the boundary between the Krkonoše and the Jizera Mountains, crowned by the best view in the area. From the apartments through Paseky nad Jizerou to Kořenov and Příchovice, from where you climb to the stone Štěpánka lookout tower on the ridge – Ještěd, the Jizera Mountains and the whole of the Krkonoše are visible from the top. Back through Kořenov and Harrachov (a stop at the Vokřínek bakery). Asphalt and gravel roads with several longer climbs.
Go on a clear day – in good visibility you can see as far as Ještěd from Štěpánka; otherwise it is just another hill.
