When choosing a holiday apartment in Šubířov, nature and local history offer different points of interest: the Bělá reserve is nearby, while the village church is a local religious landmark. There is also the Kladecko Nature Trail, which starts at Šubířov railway stop. You can tailor your trip to the topics that interest you most and plan suitable excursions accordingly.

A place with a history of woodland clearance

Šubířov was founded on cleared land in a mountainous, forested part of the estate. Its historical origins thus connect two themes: woodland clearance as the basis for settlement and the region’s forested landscape. If you are interested in the village’s development as well as its natural features, this offers a specific connection to its founding history.

Bělá and the Kladecko Nature Trail

Near Šubířov, the “private reserve” of Bělá can be reached via a yellow-marked hiking trail and the Kladecko Nature Trail; access is from Šubířov railway stop. Bělá includes wet and dry meadows with a notable diversity of plants and rare animals. How easy it is to spot wildlife varies by season. As trail conditions can change, it is advisable to check the current situation before setting out.

The Kladecko Nature Trail is 8 km long and has twelve stops. It starts at Šubířov stop and ends in the municipality of Jesenec. The route is accessible on foot and by bicycle; conditions may vary seasonally. Its length and stops give you specific details for planning, without specifying a particular walking or cycling time. A considerable part of the nature trail follows the historic “Napoleonská cesta” route.

Landscape in Kladecko Nature Park

Kladecko Nature Park includes dense forests with a tree-species composition that is relatively close to natural in some areas. The Nectava, Romže and Věžnice streams flow through the park. The U nádrže Natural Monument in the Kladecko area includes wetlands with a rich variety of flowering plants and provides a habitat for amphibians. These landscape features differ from those of Bělá: meadows and their plant and animal life define Bělá, while forests, waterways and wetlands are central to the nature park.

Village church and local monument

The Church of Panny Marie Sedmibolestné in Šubířov is a Baroque village church dating from 1714. In 1973, it was added to the state register of cultural monuments. Every year, a pilgrimage is held at the church on 15 September, the feast day of Panny Marie Sedmibolestné. If you would like to time your trip to coincide with this date, check the current programme in advance.

Another local monument stands in the settlement of Chobyně, about 2 km north of Šubířov: a wooden bell tower dating from 1931, considered the most important monument there. Together, the church in the village and the bell tower in Chobyně offer two different historical points of interest for planning your trip; the approximate distance helps you locate Chobyně.
