Village Descent
Getting there and back
The tourist path is well marked, well-trodden and easy to follow.
We had no GPS decades ago, so the tracks provided lack timing.
Mapy.cz is perfect for navigation there.
There are several water sources on the trail, but sometimes the springs are just dripping or completely dry, so it's worth planning ahead to have alternatives, or you might need to descend for the water from the ridge. It's better to avoid getting water from lakes, except for an emergency.
