Around the village square in Mysletice, the original buildings, including farmsteads, have been preserved. The original plot layout and the basic structure of the buildings have also been preserved. The village’s character can therefore be understood not only through individual farmsteads, but also through their arrangement and the layout of the settlement. The two terms describe different scales: plot layout refers to how the land is divided, while the ground plan refers to the spatial structure of the buildings. If you’re looking for a destination with a village that has evolved over time, you can take these details into account alongside cycling routes and landscape attractions. When deciding where to travel, it helps to ask whether you want to focus mainly on the village itself or on a specific tour.

Cycling and Hiking Routes

Cycling Route 5021 passes through Mysletice between Olší and Kostelní Myslová; the route from Roštejn to Kostelní Myslová is 20 kilometres long. Another cycling route, “Kolem Javořice pro náročné cyklisty” (“Around Javořice for experienced cyclists”), also passes through Mysletice and crosses hilly terrain with long climbs and fast descents. The “Cestou mrákotínské žuly” (“Along the Mrákotín granite route”) excursion route also passes through the village. You can compare the cycling routes using different details: a specific distance is given for Route 5021, while the Javořice route is characterised by its terrain, climbs and descents.

A path from Mysletice leads over the summit of Hora, which is 664 metres above sea level. For choosing a tour, this provides a different kind of reference point from the 20-kilometre distance of Cycling Route 5021: here, the named summit and its elevation provide orientation. You can therefore decide first whether to choose a cycling tour based on its distance or a path based on a distinctive destination.

Village Character and Small Monuments

The bell tower in Mysletice stands in the village square next to a general store. On the road towards Telč, a stone cross—a small religious monument of local significance—stands between two mature trees. The Chapel of the Virgin Mary is located on the wooded summit of Lopata Hill. If you’re interested in smaller architectural and religious details, these places add to your impression of Mysletice beyond its route options.

Ponds and Landscape

Nový rybník lies along the eastern cadastral boundary of Mysletice; its shores include wetlands and waterbirds. The Macků pond, within the cadastral area of Mysletice, is a fishing area. If you plan to fish there, check the applicable regulations and access arrangements in advance. The two ponds offer different points of interest for planning: wetlands and waterbirds along the shores of Nový rybník, and the designation as a fishing area at Macků.
