Ratiboř benches

Come and sit, rest, sing, recharge your energy and strength from the beautiful view not only of our Ratiboř...

This trail is managed by the association Lavičková gerila

Around Ratiboř for a Wallachian song...

There are several places in Ratiboř and its immediate surroundings where it is a pleasure to stop, breathe and rest our eyes on what nature and human activity offer us to enjoy, learn or remember... We have found these places and equipped them with benches inviting us to sit down.

A bonus for each such place is a symbolic metal post with a box containing a memory book with a description of the place and a song to sing.

You can view the location of all the benches directly on the map.cz website:
