Nová Ves V Horách offers two clear starting points for planning your visit: local history at the museum and church, and routes with different profiles. Details range from an educational trail with stations and information panels to seasonal cross-country ski trails. This lets you tailor your stay to whether cultural history or a particular activity is your priority.
Museum and Architectural History
The Novoveské Museum displays surviving exhibits about life in the town’s homes and a school from an earlier era. The museum also features wooden toys. Their production locally began in the second half of the 18th century, giving you a sense of the timeline of the local craft tradition.
The late Baroque Church of St. Michael the Archangel, together with the adjoining rectory from the second half of the 18th century, is an important cultural monument. The church was rebuilt between 1780 and 1784 and consecrated on September 19, 1784. This date links its architectural history to a precisely documented historical event.
The history of the Jeřabina observation tower is also recorded with a precise date: it was reconstructed and reopened to visitors on June 28, 2009.
Routes and Seasonal Activities
For cycling trips, the local Cyklostezka Nová Ves–Mníšek cycle route is one option. The “Cyklotrasa: Nová Ves v Horách – Jezeří Castle” route is also suitable for pedestrians. Another described trail leads from Nová Ves v Horách–Mikulovice, marked in red and paved, gently uphill to the junction of marked trails at Dřevařský Pond. The routes therefore differ in their stated uses and the specific features of their courses.
The “Dvě země – jeden region” educational trail has 22 stations, more than 30 information panels, and over 20 play and educational features. It is rated as moderately difficult. This offers a different type of activity from a cycle route or a trail described mainly in terms of its course and surface: here, information and play features are part of the trail.
Local leisure options also include maintained cross-country ski trails. They are a seasonal option; snow and trail maintenance affect whether they can be used. Take these conditions into account when planning rather than treating cross-country skiing as a year-round activity.
Before cycling the route or setting out on the described trails, it is advisable to check the latest route conditions. On the section from Mikulovice, the surface and markings are important points of reference.
