Dubovice: Cycling Routes, Landscape and Chapels

When planning a stay in Dubovice, three interests stand out: cycling, landscape and local history. An official cycling route passes through the village; the Pelhřimov Ring II is designed as a circular route around Pelhřimov. Chapels and a memorial provide tangible points of connection to the village’s history. If you are looking for a hotel, these themes can help you decide what to focus on during your stay.

The official Okolo vodních mlýnů cycling route passes through Dubovice. It runs through picturesque countryside above Pelhřimov. The Pelhřimov Ring II is a 47.5 km circular route around Pelhřimov.

The approach to Dubovice on the Pelhřimov Ring II includes a 5 km stretch on an unpaved road before the route meets a paved road.

In the Pelhřimov Horská Kvilda area, people cycle in summer and cross-country ski in winter. Each of the two activities is clearly associated with a different season there.
