What a lovely looking trail, Aurelius! I'll say that yours was much more in the woods than mine was. We did mostly walk on paved surfaces, but on narrow back roads. There were opportunities to take shortcuts, but I refused them because of my shoes. I was wearing summery Sketchers that would have gotten soaked in the woods and inadequate for the conditions. If I had known we wanted such a hike, I would have worn my hiking boots...and a rain jacket.

All along the walk we took yesterday were natural springs, from which you could drink the water. There were even cups left there to do so, though I wouldn't want to use them. The appeal of the walk was that it was through an area of abandoned gold mines from the long ago past. It also led to a beautiful river called the Sazava. Attached is a photo of one entrance to the mines with a saint sculpture inset into the walls. The whole area had beautiful trees and fern. Pretty Czech cottages were also interspersed here and there.
