Vendryně: Hotels and Accommodations

The two restored Vápenné pece in Vendryně serve to help visitors learn about the history of the area and provide a place for recreation. They are located 2 km from the Vendryně railway stop; from there, a green hiking trail leads to them.

History and Culture

The local “Wopiynky” in Vendryně were lime kilns where the limestone quarried in Vendryně was processed. Another testament to the history of the village is the Church of St. Catherine, a single-nave, masonry church in the Gothic style. Its tower housed an unusually shaped bell that was probably cast in the mid-15th century by bell founder Hans Freudenthal. There is also a Baroque cross from 1790 in the nearby cemetery.

Hiking and Cycling

The “For the Beauties of Vendryně’s Nature” trail consists of two independent circular routes. The two sections are approximately 10 km and 22 km long, respectively, and can be completed individually as half-day hikes or together as a full-day tour.

The Vendryňský kotár cycling route, ceremonially opened and reconstructed on May 10, 2008, is marked with information boards. The Vendryňský kotár cycling race for the mayor’s cup, for children and adults, takes place on the route every year.
