2020 has become the year of domestic tourism. This is no different in the Jeseníky Mountains. The most famous places are literally bursting at the seams. However, you can still discover unique locations that you will have almost all to yourself. One of them is the deep forests of Studniční vrch.

The area of Studniční vrch is a truly unique place. The local landscape combines the heritage of the world's first hydrotherapeutic spa with top-quality facilities and terrains not only for cycling.

As a legacy from the times of the famous Vincenzo Priessnitz and his followers, the forests above Priessnitz's healing baths contain a unique combination ofsprings, monuments, viewpoints and memorable rocks. You can discover them and taste their water and atmosphere thanks to themed hiking trails that start right in the Jeseníky spa.

One of the oldest trails, the so-called Nassavská trail, which was built by Duke Adolf Nassavský in gratitude for his successful treatment at Gräfenberg, leads through the magical landscape of the southern slope of Sokolský Ridge with rocks and cliffs, probably named after the Duke's children.

The six-kilometre-long Vincenz Priessnitz trail will take you to the Polish Spring, the slightly radioactive Morning Spring, the sumptuously decorated Romanian Spring or the Three Springs with a natural shower, where you can refresh yourself. The almost 11-kilometre-long Living Water Trail will teach you, among other things, that so-called living water really exists. Wooden statues of fairy tale creatures and carved benches also add variety to the route.

This part of the Rychleby Mountains can also be explored by bicycle, and the YesCycle routes are the best way to navigate the terrain. If you are a biker, you will be pleased to know that the famous Rychleby trails wind through the hills. These are much busier than the hiking trails along the springs. In addition to the trails, you can also enjoy bouldering. The huge boulders here are the first area with a well-mapped and elaborate information structure in Central Europe. In close connection with the trails, they form the world's unique Bike and Boulder arena .
