First biking stage:
Biking to Karlštejn is an easy route that leads along rivers. The Karlštejn castle is the mayor sightseeing sight. The Czech King and Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV had it built as an impregnable fortress housing the imperial crown jewels and the most sacred relics.
2nd Day: Svaty Jan Pod Skálou Valley loop, approx. 30 km
You will cycle to one of the most picturesque villages in Český Kras natural protected area. The history of the village dates back to the end of the 9th century. Shortly afterwards you will pass a limestone quarry called Velká Amerika (Big America) which has a terrific history. Political prisoners of communist regime were made to work here. Mining was conducted in an unusual way by gradual digging of a huge pit (about 800m long, 200m wide and 100m deep), connected to other quarries by long tunnels from the first half of the 20th century.
3rd Day: Koněprusy caves and Beroun loop, approx. 33 km
Today’s loop will take you to the Koněprusy caves which are developed in 400 million years old Devonian limestone. The caves are 70 m under the ground level and over 2 km long. The accessible part is 590 m long and sightseeing tour lasts one hour. The caves were discovered in 1950 and made accessible for the public in 1959. Another interesting stop is at medieval town of Beroun. Beside city hall and square you can visit local brewery or have a picnic on the bank of Berounka River in a scenic river valley.
4th Day: Karlštejn – Prague, approx. 40 km
You will follow Berounka River (different route) to return into your hotel in Prague. It is an easy route almost all the way on banks of Berounka and Vltava Rivers. You will have a different view of Prague as you cycle through the city on Vltava River’s bank.
