Discover Hrobice: Hiking Trails, Culture and Views

Hrobice offers several specific reasons to visit: hiking, scenery, local history and events. If you’re looking for hotels for a trip here, these themes can help shape your plans. The key question is whether you want to include the blue-marked hiking trail, local walking routes, cultural and historical sites, or events in your itinerary.

Hiking and scenery

The blue-marked hiking trail runs through Hrobice and leads from Vizovice via Holý vrch to Vsetín. This long-distance route is complemented by a local walking spot at Dubíček, which offers sweeping views of the surrounding area. The landscape can also be explored through specific landmarks: the Slušovice Reservoir borders Hrobice to the northwest; to the southwest, there are broad views and grazing land. If you plan to hike the trail, check its current route and markings before setting out, as route details can change.

Culture and local history

The Chapel of Panny Marie Sedmibolestné in Hrobice dates from 1994. A memorial to the citizens of Hrobice who fell in the First World War was unveiled beside the chapel. The bell tower of Hrobice has been listed as a cultural monument since 2003. The medieval and modern-era centre of Hrobice is designated as an archaeological site. The archaeological site marks the probable extent of medieval Hrobice, first mentioned in 1446. The historical landmarks thus range from individual buildings and memorials to the archaeological classification of the town centre.

Traditions and events

A pilgrimage celebration takes place at the Chapel of Panny Marie Sedmibolestné on a Sunday in mid-September. The Fašank/Masopust tradition in Hrobice includes a masked procession led by a bear, accompanied by music. At the annual tasting of Hrobice slivovitz, locally produced fruit spirits are compared in public. If a particular event is central to your plans, check the date in advance.

Sports and activities

The na Dubíčku complex is used year-round for cultural, dance and sporting events. It includes a fully fenced children’s playground with workout equipment, which opened and became accessible in 2022. There is also a multi-purpose sports court with artificial turf for sports activities. During the season, visitors can play small-sided football, tennis, volleyball, nohejbal and other games there. The court can be reserved in advance; keys can be collected from the municipal office or the mayor. For planning purposes, it is useful to note the distinction: the complex hosts events year-round, while the sports court activities listed are seasonal.

Getting there by bus

Hrobice is accessible by bus. If you choose this option, check the current timetable before departure, as operators and schedules can change.
