Discover Makov

The woodland settlement of Makov lies in a valley between two rocky ridges. The village offers several different points of interest to help you plan your trip: the landscape and panoramic views from Křivánčí vrch, its chapel history, film connections, and a cycling route described as a full-day tour that passes through Makov. You can weigh up whether to visit Makov mainly for its views and cultural attractions or as one section of a longer cycling route.

Landscape and Views

Part of the cadastral area of Makov lies within the Halasovo Kunštátsko Nature Park. The nature park was designated in 1980 and revised in 1994. The geographical references differ: the valley and ridges define the settlement’s character as described, while only part of the cadastral area is included in the nature park.

Křivánčí vrch near Makov is an excursion hill offering panoramic views of the surrounding area. On a clear day, you can also see Praděd, the Drahanská vrchovina uplands, and the Kojál transmitter. These named landmarks give the panorama a specific character; their visibility depends on clear conditions. If you would like to plan your trip around this view, the weather is a factor to take into account.

Chapels and Film Connections

The Chapel of the Holy Trinity (Nejsvětější Trojice) in Makov dates from 1857 and is listed as a cultural monument. The Makovská kaple, meanwhile, bears the title “Roof of the Year 1997.” The dates refer to different details: 1857 is the year the Chapel of the Holy Trinity dates from, while 1997 forms part of the title of the Makovská kaple.

Another connection to cultural history comes from scenes in the series “Četnické humoresky.” The scene “Před stavením” from the episode “Hypnotizér” is attributed to house no. 15 in Makov. The scene “Vozidla před domem” from the series is attributed to the road behind Makov in the direction of Sychotín in the Blansko District. The chapel details and the film scenes highlight different aspects: here, construction date and heritage status; there, specific scene titles and locations.

A Full-Day Cycling Tour

A cycling tour from Rozseč via Makov and Petrov back to Kunštát is described as a full-day route. Makov is therefore part of a connection that takes in several places and continues beyond the village. The time estimate gives you a useful sense of scale when planning this tour as part of your stay: it is described as a full-day route, not a short circuit around the village. Alongside the local landscape and cultural attractions, this longer cycling route offers a separate reason to visit.

Find Hotels in Makov

When choosing a specific place to stay, the details provided for each hotel are what matter. This lets you consider whether to visit the area and compare individual offers separately.
