I found it rather mediocre to ride (tours e-bike), but it is very beautiful there and there is a lot to see.

The long, rolling hills are not to be underestimated when riding an e-bike, but they are beautiful nonetheless.

“But perhaps the time is not yet ripe for that (...) lest one day they bring misfortune upon each other, along with their peoples. And if they should nevertheless do so, may the dear Lord, in his will, ordain that at least afterwards, when the calamity has already befallen them all, they find their way back to each other and make peace once and for all in this world.” So writes Otfried Preußler (born in 1923 in Reichenberg, Bohemia), best known as a children's author, in his work “The Flight to Egypt. Royal Bohemian Part.” While his words, within the context of the story, refer to the German and Czech inhabitants of the Kingdom of Bohemia, his statement is actually universal and timeless.
