About the trip

A small town on the ridge above the Jizera valley, from where you can see the whole Krkonoše crest from the south – you can pick out Kotel, Zlaté návrší and Lysá hora, exactly where our walking routes lead. An arcaded square, a museum and quiet without the tourist crowds. Best as a coffee stop on the cycling loop.

Personal tip from us

Walk out to the edge of town and look at the Krkonoše – it is the only place around from which you see the whole ridge at once.

Tips

  • The best view of the Krkonoše is from the southern edge of town.
  • Vysoké is part of our cycling loop – the two combine well.
  • Entering the town and the viewpoints are free; you only pay for the museum.
