If you are considering Horní Adršpach as a place to stay, there are several concrete points of interest: the nearby rock formations of the Adršpašské skály, cycling routes through the town and the history of the Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. The railway station is also worth considering when planning your trip.

Rock formations in the surrounding area

The Adršpašské skály, with thousands of rock towers, lie in the area around Horní Adršpach. The Milenci rock tower there reaches a height of 81.4 metres. These two details offer different perspectives: the many towers describe the landscape as a whole, while Milenci highlights one named high point. If you are focusing on natural formations, you get both an overview and a specific example.

Cycling: a climb and a church landmark

Cycling Route 1 passes through Horní Adršpach. From here, it climbs along the Adršpašský potok stream on cycling route 4036. This gives you two clear reference points for planning: Horní Adršpach as your starting point and the subsequent climb alongside the stream. Conditions may vary by season, so take this into account when planning your dates and check the current situation before setting off.

The Teplicko-Adršpašský circuit also passes through Horní Adršpach. After climbing to Horní Adršpach, it runs past the Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. This gives it a different landmark from Cycling Route 1: here it is the church, while the other route features the climb along the Adršpašský potok stream on cycling route 4036. Conditions on the circuit may also vary. The two routes can therefore be distinguished by the route features mentioned for each.

Getting there by train

Horní Adršpach railway station is part of an integrated transport system and is on line 047 between Trutnov and Teplice nad Metují. When planning your journey, you can use this line number and the two place names to search for timetables. Information about the transport system and railway line may change, so check the current timetable and travel information before your trip.

The church and local history

The Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross stands in Horní Adršpach and was built between 1827 and 1831. It replaced a wooden church with a bell tower that had stood in the local cemetery since 1688. The earlier wooden building and the later church therefore belong to two distinct phases of construction. More than a century separates the beginning of the predecessor building’s history from the construction of the church. Alongside the nearby rock formations and cycling routes, the church offers its own historical point of interest when choosing a travel destination.
