About the trip

Thanks to its easy-to-follow tracks, relaxed profile and few steep climbs, this trip suits families with children and recreational skiers. This superb medium-length loop starts right in the picturesque Jizerka settlement on a plateau below the dominant basalt hill of Bukovec. The route follows the sunny, wide Promenádní trail to the iconic U Bunkru junction and on past the popular Promenáda Kiosk, returning to Jizerka along flatter ridge sections with superb views of the open mountain landscape and protected peat bogs. The trip offers an ideal balance of modest physical effort, the fairytale winter atmosphere of the coldest corner of the Jizera Mountains and great options for a well-earned meal right in the heart of the mountains.
