Water & Šumava lakes
Třístoličník – Plechý – Plešné jezero
A full-day ridge route from Nová Pec over Plešné jezero and Plechý towards Trojmezí and Třístoličník is about 22 km according to the municipality and ends in Nové Údolí, where you can return by train.
This is not "another lake" but a full mountain day for active guests. Nová Pec describes Nová Pec–Plešné jezero–Plechý–Trojmezí–Třístoličník–Nové Údolí at about 22 km and around 5 h 28 min pure walking. The route need not be a loop: from Nové Údolí you can return by train. 🔴 In border and quiet zones of the NP you must respect marked trails and seasonally open sections.
Practical details
- Opening hours: Přírodní trasa bez jedné otevírací doby; jednotlivé úseky podléhají návštěvnímu řádu NP a sezónním omezením.
On site
- Leave early from Nová Pec and stay on the official marked route.
- At Plešné jezero take the first longer break; the rest of the day is ridge walking.
- Before border sections check current warnings and seasonal rules.
- In Nové Údolí use a checked train connection back instead of improvising along the road.
