Říčky v Orlických horách: Hotels for a ski and cycling holiday

Říčky v Orlických horách is located on a western spur of the Orlické hory mountains. The landscape includes both hills and valleys and basins shaped by numerous streams and small watercourses. For planning your trip, this setting offers an initial impression of the character of the place: winter sports and cycling opportunities sit alongside varied scenery and individual sights. If you are looking for a hotel in the area, you can first decide whether skiing, cross-country skiing or a stay with cycling activities should be your main focus. Each activity has its own character and can be considered separately when planning your trip.

Winter sports and cross-country skiing

Alpine skiing is the focus at Ski centrum Říčky. Facilities and services include a four-person chairlift, a snow park, ski rental, a ski service and a ski school. This distinction is useful when choosing between alpine skiing and cross-country skiing: the ski centre brings together facilities and services for skiing, while the Buď Fit route is part of the cross-country ski trail network.

The Buď Fit cross-country ski route, maintained by Ski centrum Říčky, is twelve kilometres long and runs via Pěticestí and Mezivrší. Its length and waypoints provide specific guidance for planning a tour. Maintenance of the trail network is tied to the winter season. Therefore, check its current status before setting out on a cross-country ski tour.

Bike park and rope park

The Bikepark Říčky summer offering for 2026 includes three trails of varying difficulty, as well as a pump track and a skills trail. The blue trail is intended primarily for beginners and families with children. The red trail is two kilometres long and features berms, jumps and tables. The specific points of reference therefore differ: the blue trail is defined by its intended users, while the red one is characterised by its length and the listed trail features. If you are considering making cycling your main focus, these differences can inform your choice.

The SpidersCentre rope park is located close to the ski centre. It includes several courses of varying difficulty and a zip line over the valley. The courses and zip line add another type of activity to the skiing and cycling options. This lets you plan your trip around different interests without focusing your stay on just one sport.

Landscape, bunker and architecture

The two-storey Pěchotní srub R-S 87 Průsek bunker is located above Říčky v Orlických horách and is open to the public. It lies on the red route between the peaks of Mezivrší and Anenský vrch. The two named peaks provide a specific geographical reference if you include the bunker in your excursion plans.

Kameny v Říčkách is a group of large upright stones about 500 metres from the centre of the village. As a landscape feature, the group differs from the architectural sight of the bunker. Alongside the sporting activities, this brings individual local places into focus, each showing the character of the surrounding area in a different way.

Říčky v Orlických horách has valuable traditional mountain houses, built predominantly using log or half-timbered log construction. This building style adds an architectural aspect to the sporting and landscape themes. If you choose a destination based on more than just activities, traditional building styles may also be a factor in your stay.
