Gita in bici di un giorno da Stráž pod Ralskem a Dolní Podluží

This scenic cycling route takes you from the charming town of Stráž pod Ralskem, nestled by a historic castle and famous for its picturesque reservoir, all the way north to Dolní Podluží, a gateway to the beautiful Lusatian Mountains.

You’ll pedal just under 34 km through rolling countryside with a total climb of around 540 meters, so expect some hills but nothing too extreme. The ride is mostly on quiet roads, perfect for soaking up the tranquil vibe, with stretches of smooth asphalt and sections where the surface changes — a bit of gravel or dirt keeps things interesting, so adventure-ready tires are recommended.

Stráž pod Ralskem is known for its peaceful lake and views of Ralsko Hill, while Dolní Podluží offers a welcoming finish set among lush forests and a relaxed mountain atmosphere. You’ll enjoy expanses of nature between charming villages, and perhaps catch a glimpse of the region’s unique half-timbered houses along the way. This is a great route for a day’s ride with plenty of fresh air and Bohemian countryside magic!
