Discover Zašovice: Nature, Trails and Village Culture

If you are looking for a hotel for a stay in Zašovice, the area's nature and culture can help you decide what to explore. The village can be experienced through a variety of interests: nature topics along the nature trail, an equestrian trail, village history and agricultural activities.

Landscape and natural environment

Salátův kopec lies south of Zašovice within the municipality's cadastral area. The hill reaches 661 metres above sea level; the site covers eight hectares. These figures describe different scales: the elevation refers to the hill, while the area figure refers to the site. Submontane Nardus grasslands without juniper predominate at Salátův kopec. For nature enthusiasts, this adds specific information about the habitat to its location and elevation.

Nature trail and equestrian trail

The “Lesní naučná stezka Chaloupky” nature trail covers ecology, nature conservation, botany, ornithology and forest management. One of its stops is the “Urbánkův palouk” natural monument. Its topics range from plants and species to forest management. The nature trail map also shows Zašovice and Nová Brtnice.

A green-marked equestrian trail runs through the built-up area of Zašovice and the adjoining area. There are also two riding stations along the trail in Zašovice. If you are interested in the equestrian trail, check the local markers before setting out. The nature trail and equestrian trail have different focuses: the former highlights nature and forests, while the latter runs through the built-up area and its surroundings.

Village history and historical finds

The Chapel of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, dating from the 19th century, stands in the village square. The Zašovice coin hoard, discovered in the 18th century, offers another way to explore the area's history. It includes at least four solidi attributed to Zeno twice, as well as Anastasius I and Justinian I. Alongside a distinctive local landmark, the history of the find and its numismatic attributions provide different points of interest for planning your trip.

Agricultural activities and practical information

Farma Zašovice is an active agricultural operation focused on producing dairy products. For the 2026/2027 school year, Farma offers educational programmes that include a farm tour and practical activities. These include caring for, feeding and milking animals. Bookings for these programmes were available from 24 August 2026. The farm's agricultural focus is thus combined with a specific educational offer.

The Chaloupky centre near Nová Brtnice offers week-long programmes as well as weekend and holiday events. For practical guidance, the “Zašovice, Nová Brtnice” bus stop is 150 metres from the centre. This information adds event formats and a specific reference point for travelling to Chaloupky to the area's nature and culture offerings.
