Do you like cycling with a drop of adrenaline? Then be sure to plan a trip to the newly built sports complex in Moravská Třebová. You can look forward to 13 km of trail tracks in the vicinity of the popular Pastýřka lookout tower and a location with the mysterious name of Peklo. Singltrek Moravská Třebová offers activities for advanced and recreational cyclists, including children. The trails are colour-coded red, blue and green according to their difficulty. The starting point for all cyclists is the parking lot under the castle. From here you can head towards Hell, where the less difficult blue trails begin. You can then head across Knížecí meadow to the retention basin, where you will join the moderately difficult trails marked in red. Especially for children, the easiest green trails, which lead through the Knížecí louka recreation area, are designed for children. You can also use the adjacent pumptrack with an asphalt surface and a total length of 255 m. Waves and banked turns allow you to maintain or even increase your speed by pumping. You can have a lot of fun on the track, plus you can improve your technical and driving skills.
From the lookout tower on the Pastvisko Hill near Moravská Třebová you can see not only the Renaissance chateau and the town centre with the Hřebeč massif in the background, but also the Orlické Mountains, Králický Sněžník or the Jeseníky Mountains.
Expositions of the Moravská Třebová Chateau, often called the pearl of Renaissance architecture, will guide you through the history of the town. You may even be a little scared when you visit the torture chamber and the laboratory in the cellars, where you will get a glimpse into the secrets of alchemists.
