JESTED TOWER AT LIBEREC
Mt. Jested is famous for ski resort in Czech Republic. It stands 1,012 meters above the sea level and is part of Jested-Kozakov Ridge, 100 km north of Prague. Few weekends ago we went up there before the snow melted completely and see Liberec and surrounding in winter time.
Instead of taking funicular, this time we decided to walk 10 km and cover 500 m elevation.The iced path worried me a bit as it added slippery part of the hiking. However, the hot chocolate and garlic soup in the Jested Tower's restaurant paid it off:-).The view overlooking the Liberec area at that day is not greenery picture at all but it still presented peace and majestic feelings as you looked down and around.
The way back as we were racing with the sunset was not easier after all, with all melting snow and steep hill, we literally were the snowball rolling down the hill with all people staring down from the funicular above:-)!
We were lucky enough to enjoy the live international ski jumping competition. They were so unbelievable! Flying and landing gracefully on the ground.
I was in Czech Republic too, last summer, it was amazing. I loved the city the streets, the lights the people are very nice as well. I loved the place we slept in I’ll leave you here a very good site about <a HREF="http://www.prague-hotels.org.uk/" REL="nofollow">Prague hotels</a>, they are cheap and very pleasant. I also went to Liberec but I didn’t see any the snow. Although I loved the indoors aquapark.
