Discover Smilovice U Třince

Cycling features among several of the named leisure activities in Smilovice U Třince. The area also has connections to the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area, an opportunity to swim in nature, and cultural and memorial sites. This gives you a range of options for planning your trip, from a cycling route and sports facilities to the landscape and local history.

Cycling and marked routes

Cycling Route No. 56 runs from Smilovice to Bukovec. The Bikecentrum Smilovice offers a natural pump track. In 2025, construction of a jump line and skill zone for the Bikecentrum was also completed at the Sportcentrum Smilovice complex. The route and facilities offer different ways to include cycling in your plans: the route links two places, while the pump track, jump line and skill zone are listed as Bikecentrum features. If you want to plan around the facilities completed in 2025, check in advance whether they are currently available for use.

Another route option is the marked blue trail from Střítež railway station in the direction of Guty. It forms the opening section of the traditional Mánes Trail. Its starting point, direction and status as the first section give this route a different character from Cycling Route No. 56. When planning, you can therefore choose between a named cycling route and a marked trail associated with a traditional footpath.

The Beskydy and nature

The southwestern part of the cadastral area of Smilovice extends into the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area (CHKO Beskydy). Within the municipality, the Beskydy Site of Community Importance (EVL Beskydy, CZ0724089) covers the same 222.1 hectares as the protected landscape area.

There is an opportunity to swim in nature in the Ropičanka River. If you are planning a day of swimming, check local conditions before taking a dip. The protected landscape and a possible visit to the river offer two different ways to experience the area’s natural surroundings.

Sports facilities in Smilovice

Sportcentrum Smilovice has two grass pitches, tennis courts and a multi-purpose hall. The sports facilities listed here go beyond cycling: grass pitches, tennis and a hall are offered as different types of facility. If you are planning around different sporting interests, you can consider these separately from the cycling routes and Bikecentrum facilities.

Karmel, memorial sites and local history

Karmel is a spiritual and educational centre in Smilovice. Services are held at the Karmel Centre at 9:00 a.m. on the fourth Sunday of each month. A gathering is also scheduled at Karmel for 3:00 p.m. If you want to plan a visit around one of these times, check the relevant date in advance.

Memorial sites also form part of the local landscape: House No. 77 is considered the birthplace of Jerzy Buzek and bears a commemorative plaque. The Smilovice War Memorial is a war grave without human remains and commemorates events of the First World War. The two sites have different meanings: the house commemorates a person, while the memorial recalls the events of the war.
