Trnava – Nature Trails and Historic Traces

In Trnava, practical hiking opportunities meet historic points of interest. When planning your trip, you can consider whether you would rather explore trails through the landscape or focus on specific topics related to nature and history. Kobylinec offers one point of reference: the natural monument covers 0.44 hectares, lies within the cadastral area of the municipality of Trnava, and is part of Třebíčsko Nature Park. The Church of St. Peter and Paul and a reconciliation cross near Velký Bor also offer a reason to explore the history of the area. When looking for a hotel, this selection can help you tailor your stay to your interests.

Kobylinec and the Trails in the Nature Park

Kobylinec is not only designated as a natural monument, but also lies along blue- and yellow-marked hiking trails. This makes it a useful point of reference when planning time outdoors. In addition, several hiking and cycling trails in Třebíčsko Nature Park pass directly through Trnava. These regional trails and the marked hiking trails near Kobylinec offer different points of reference for your planning: some run through Trnava, while others are near the natural monument.

A circular route in Třebíčsko Nature Park starts and ends in Trnava and is 17.3 kilometres long. Kobylinec lies 1.3 kilometres from Trnava along this route. The two figures describe different things: the longer distance refers to the entire loop, while the shorter one is the distance to Kobylinec along the route. When planning your hike, you can therefore decide whether to follow the complete loop or use the location of the natural monument as your reference.

Nature Observations and Historic Traces

Velký Bor Pond also offers its own reason to take in the surroundings: visitors can see beaver dams and trees gnawed by beavers in the area around the pond. Such traces in nature may change over time. If you are interested in them, it makes sense to plan for them as possible observations rather than a guaranteed feature of a particular visit.

Near the dam at Velký Bor, a reconciliation cross commemorates a story from the mid-17th century. This is a different historical connection from that of the Church of St. Peter and Paul: construction of the church began in 1665, after the previous church was destroyed during the Thirty Years’ War.

Getting There by Scheduled Bus

Trnava is served by scheduled buses operated by TRADO-BUS, s. r. o., and ZDAR, a. s. Three bus stops are named: Trnava = rozcestí, Trnava, and Trnava - zahradnictví. If you plan to travel by bus, check the relevant timetable and stop information before setting out. This will help you coordinate your journey with the time you plan to spend on trails or exploring historic sites, without assuming a specific route.

The circular route, the trails near Kobylinec, and the historical sites can each provide a different focus when choosing where to stay. Consider which of these matter to your trip, then look for a hotel for your stay in Trnava.
