In the first restaurant on the left side of the street from the church to the market square, the wine grown here is offered. Elsewhere, sure, try it.

August 20, 2023,Moldau Tag 13: Prag - Štětí

It is only a few minutes drive from our hotel to the Vltava River. The sporty people of Prague keep fit on the bike path. We meet many joggers, but also cyclists. It's just Sunday.

We understand why the city of Prague was able to expand in its place. Because soon the river valley becomes narrow again; the slopes next …

The tour from Melnik to Prague leads over the barrage below Melnik along the Vltava and is characterized by a rather flat terrain. You can save yourself the second Vltava crossing (bridge with district heating pipes) if you ignore the bridge and instead use the new bicycle bridge in the next village. The third Vltava crossing, over a bridge that …

Today is actually the first planned stage on our tour. The cycle paths from adventurous to excellent.
Unfortunately we got the worst hotel room of the entire tour in Melnik...a musty basement.

Well-developed cycle paths, with beautiful sections along the Vltava and through tree-lined avenues.

Just before Prague, when you go over the mountain, you first have to travel on bumpy sandy paths and then with traffic on the road, which was very unpleasant, especially because the cars have difficulty overtaking.

August 22, 2024,Tag 6: Prag - Steti (Wegstadt)

After a day of sightseeing in Prague, we continued along the Vltava and Elbe. The cycle paths are very well developed, except for a few kilometres, but the signage is a bit confusing in some places, which cost us a few kilometres of detour.

June 10, 2025,Elbradweg (heute eigentlich noch Moldau) Prag - Melnik 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

The first 10 km were missing because Komoot suddenly stopped.
We had a bad start until midday: first, leaving Prague was stressful because it wasn't bike-friendly. Then the EuroVelo 7 was closed due to a landslide for 2 km, costing us about 12 km more and a lot of elevation gain. Along the way, we encountered an aggressive dog belonging …
