Educational trail of military history Králíky

The uniqueness of this nature trail lies in the Röchling anti-concrete missiles, which were a secret weapon of the Third Reich. Even today, we find them buried in the walls of the artillery cabin K-S 11 in the fortress Hůrka.

Information boards are located along the entire route and can be boarded at all museums and on the Great Square in Králíky. The aim of this route was to connect the center of Králíky with three military museums, which are located on the northern edge of the city, as well as with other localities that are somehow connected to military history.

The nature trail does not have a circular character, but is composed of a secondary and main circuit, various branches and jumpers. You can leave the Municipal Museum Králíky, which is located on the aforementioned Great Square, and from where the route also leads to Kralický Sněžník and other places.

• Route Š1 - leads from the railway station in Těchonín to the Bouda fortress and lasts about 5 to 6 hours. It is about 6.5 km long and leads along a forest section.
• Route Š2 - leads from the Králíky railway station through Velké náměstí and from there along information boards and signs along the nature trail. The time required is a 5 to 6 hour walk.
