Surrounding beauties

Hostýn mountains are formed by wooded highlands, located in the eastern Moravia, region Zlín, to the north of Zlín. The highlands are a part of western flysh Karpathian with its highest peak Kelčský Javorník (865m). The highlands are named after striking peak and pilgrimage place Hostýn (735m) stretching above Bystřice pod Hostýnem. Although, the mountains don't reach the height even not seize of other mountain massives in our country, it is used to being looked up by nature lovers especially from Zlín and Kroměříž. Hostýn mountains attract us not only by their undemanding hiking trails but also cycle tracks of different levels intended for track or mountain bikes. In winter tourists can enjoy downhillskiing in the ski resorts such as Troják and Tesák, also cross-country skiing on the long ridges with low height differences. All year round Hostyn mountains are opened to those who prefer lonely walks in the vast forests or sunny meadows with straggling Wallachian cottages.
