A west-facing chapel, views of Haná in good visibility, and a starting point for cyclists and hikers reveal different sides of Mrsklesy. There is also a cycling route to Velká Bystřice and a sports area with tennis and volleyball courts. When planning your trip, it is worth distinguishing features of the village from offerings tied to a particular edition of an event.

The Chapel of St. Sebastian

The Chapel of St. Sebastian is a freestanding building with a square floor plan and a semicircular end; it faces west. Three distinct descriptive features come together here: the floor plan describes the layout, the orientation indicates its compass direction, and the end describes the shape of the structure. Anyone interested in sacred architecture will find a clearly defined reason to visit Mrsklesy.

Location and views

Mrsklesy lies on the boundary of the Libavá Military Training Area. In good visibility, higher parts of the village offer views of Haná. These are two distinct points of reference: the boundary location tells you where the village is, while the view depends on the weather. This distinguishes the geographical location from a view that can vary with visibility.

Exploring by bike and on foot

A leisurely cycling route between Mrsklesy and Velká Bystřice follows a wide paved road with light traffic. The road surface and traffic levels are specific features of the route; local conditions may change. Check them before setting out.

There is also a Bílý-kámen entry point for cyclists and hikers at the cultural centre in Mrsklesy. Parking, refreshments and toilets are available there; these services may vary from one edition to another. Entry arrangements can also change between editions. Check the information for the specific event before your visit.

Sports and events

The sports area in Mrsklesy has a tennis court and a volleyball court. These two specific ball sports complement the options for cycling and hiking. Mrsklesy Children's Day includes a traditional skills ride at the skate park.

At the Kácení májky 2026 celebration, a traditional nerve-testing course was the highlight of the evening; future programmes may differ. A Nordic walking event on 7 June 2025 offered adults routes of 5 and 10 kilometres. These distances were part of that event; later formats may vary.

Keep dates in mind when planning your stay

The chapel, location and views are features of the village, while the events mentioned are tied to specific dates and editions. If an event programme is the reason for your trip, check the date and details of the relevant edition before planning your accommodation.
