Problem: Suppose I am a well-known and well-liked Hollywood producer, but numerous addictions and not very accurate life decisions led me to the brink of bankruptcy. My only hope would be this one, last film & #8230; only the budget does not gently stretch. The set design has just run out.<\/p>\n

Solution: Go to Moravia and make a movie about a zombie attack in the style of Walking Dead or some post-apocalyptic, set in the world of Fallout.<\/p>\n

I know, I have written it many times, but the surroundings we have traveled this time are disturbingly unique. There are so many bicycle paths and routes that I regret at every intersection that we cannot split or even split & #8230; tripled (?). Bitumens are mostly very good and exemplary, with small, very sporadic breakouts from the norm. While this still sounds normal, the fact that on the vast majority of the routes we cover, meeting a car or even a human being is a serious attraction, it is already a bit strange. It's not that there is no civilization & #8211; there are houses, but without people. Such classic Czech Republic.<\/p>\n

Even in Olomouc, a city described on the internet as & #8222; City of palaces, temples and baroque fountains & #8221;<\/em> and defined by Wikipedia & #8222; one of the most important administrative, industrial, commercial and service, academic and cultural centers on the national scale & #8221;<\/em>, kind of people. And I will add that in my opinion, which I will surely fall into many people, Olomouc is such a Krakow & #8211; at least visually.<\/p>\n

\n

Logistics<\/h2>\n

In my opinion, the optimal version of the weekend is:<\/p>\n

1. Departure by train on Friday after work<\/p>\n

2. Overnight in Ostrava in a reasonable hotel where we can leave civilian clothes (hotels in Ostrava can be found here & #8211; let me earn<\/a>)<\/p>\n

3. Loop through Olomouc, by random routes, because it will be fine and traffic will be low. Preferably around 2 x 150km. (hotels in Olomouc can be found here<\/a>)<\/p>\n

4. Return to Ostrava on Sunday afternoon, picking up clothes, przebi\u00f3rka<\/em>, dinner in the city and return by train.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We modify it a bit, because Panda must check how to ride with a large seat, before the trip to Taiwan, which we are going to in two weeks. So we take civil things with us & #8230; and some other unnecessary trash.<\/p>\n

We take with us:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n& #8211; 2 cycling jerseys and one sweatshirt
\n& #8211; gloves
\n& #8211; civil trousers & #8211; rustling \/ leggings (because space is limited), two civilian shirts
\n& #8211; two pairs of pants and three pairs of socks

This set allows you to ride freely at temperatures high and low to around a few degrees. On Sunday morning, when the temperature reaches around 5 \u00b0 C, and everything around is frozen & #8211; still calmly enough.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Moravia is near
\nbut for lazy onions a little further<\/h2>\n

Sir, I have a very good connection for the weekend. I discovered them recently and now I'm angry with myself that it took me so many years. It turns out that trains may not be that bad despite the fact that we have never arrived anywhere on time in the history of the blog.<\/p>\n

The train from Warsaw to Ostrava takes about 4 hours & #8211; both Intercity and Intercity Express. However, a significant difference appears in the price: PLN 150 vs PLN 65. As if that was not enough, PKP offers quite friendly connections & #8211; you leave on Friday after work and in the evening you are there, you come back on Sunday evening and at a decent time you check in at home.<\/p>\n

Of course, we catch the cheaper version and we pay about PLN 300 for two bikes from Eastern Warsaw to Cha\u0142upki. And here probably the question & #8211; appears in your head. what Cha\u0142upki, how were Moravia supposed to be ?! Well, buying an international train ticket exceeds my technological capabilities and I am not able to do it online. So we buy a ticket to the last town in Poland, namely Cha\u0142upki, and further to Ostrava, we are already cycling. It's even funny, because our train goes there too.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

<\/h2>\n

Cha\u0142upki, a place worth visiting.<\/h2>\n

& #8230; no one ever said probably. Getting off the train at the station in Cha\u0142upki is a bit like a sad horror that takes place somewhere far in Eastern Europe. A large, brick building, which certainly & #8211; was once a station, today it is simply a facility for sale. A not too long street leads to it, surrounded by houses creating a friendly atmosphere by means of brown smoke released from chimneys. The most brown of all & #8211; all we have to do is cough and leave.<\/p>\n

Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the train NICEA & #8211 stops at Cha\u0142upki station; MOSCOW. This is the only station in Poland (except Warsaw) where it stands. In this simple way, from Cha\u0142upki we can get directly to, for example, Monaco, Milan, the Garda, the Dolomites, Innsbruck or & #8230; to Smolensk.<\/p>\n

When on Sunday we return to Cha\u0142upki an hour before the train departure, we go to Pizzeria Annaberg & #8211; it's cheap, close to the station, close to shopping on Orlen and moderately & #8211; pizza like pizza, and smazeny syr always good. Also, after two days of eating & #8222; various things & #8221; pizza in Cha\u0142upki served on a classic Silesian bottom (100% Silesian coal) effectively treats all ailments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

oh, Strava!<\/h2>\n

Overcoming several kilometers from Cha\u0142upki to Ostrava is not a problem: first along an empty road, and then along a path along the river (beautiful memories of Gass\u00f3w). Especially that thanks to this we also pass through the whole city & #8211; sightseeing included. We also discover that we hit the weekend at the local Oktoberfest.<\/p>\n

\"morawy\"<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n

As you can also see in the photo above, one of the better sunsets we've seen along the way meets us. We saw the red sky so recently in California on Long Beach<\/a>. I know that no one has ever compared Ostrava suburbs to Long Beach before, but what will I do & #8211; only truth.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Overnight I & #8211; Ostrava, northern end of the Moravian Gate<\/h2>\n

We book accommodation in Ostrava a few hours in advance & #8211; still from the train. Guided by the common criterion in us & #8222; the cheapest, but with preservation of the kidneys & #8221; the choice is good sounding:<\/p>\n

[social_icon bg_color = "#404040 \u2033 color =" #ffffff "icon =" icon-home "type =" type1 \u2033 href = ""] [\/ social_icon] Apartments Ostrava V\u00edtkovice (link) <\/a>[social_icon bg_color = "#404040 \u2033 color =" #ffffff "icon =" icon-home "type =" type1 \u2033 href = ""] [\/ social_icon]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

What can I say about accommodation? Certainly, it's cheap & #8211; we pay PLN 128 per night<\/strong>. It is also logistically perfect, because maintenance-free & #8211; by the front door there are small ones sejfiki<\/em>in which the keys are hidden.<\/p>\n

In addition, it is clean, and in terms of architecture the building itself is a masterpiece, because on the surface the size of a large room in normal flat<\/em> I managed to stuff two rooms, two restrooms, bathroom, hall and kitchenette. And then there is the area & #8230; if you are a fan of industrialism, kopalniok\u00f3w<\/em>, the smell of a burnt clutch and large chimneys & #8211; you'll be in paradise. Otherwise you won't. We like it, but we are weird.<\/p>\n

If anyone pats accommodation in the Vitkowice district on our recommendation, I apologize in advance. If you don't guess what I'm talking about, look at Google Images's results the phrase Vitkowice<\/a> & #8211; I recommend checking BEFORE you leave.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Accommodation II & #8211; Olomouc, Lower Moravian Lowering<\/h2>\n

We did not plan to enter Olomouc at all, but several factors prompted us to do so: strong wind receiving driving pleasure, accommodation and availability of shops. We don't regret the decision because Olomouc turned out to be a very nice city & #8211; such a combination of Krakow and the German town & #8211; at least around the center.<\/p>\n

\"morawy\"<\/a><\/div><\/div>
\"morawy\"<\/a><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/p>\n

We are looking for accommodation on one of the main squares, munching on the bread roll, bought in a kebab window. Olomouc turns out to be an amazingly expensive city and following our price criterion we land in:<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

[social_icon bg_color = "#404040 \u2033 color =" #ffffff "icon =" icon-home "type =" type1 \u2033 href = ""] [\/ social_icon] <\/a>Hotel Senimo (link) <\/a>[social_icon bg_color = "#404040 \u2033 color =" #ffffff "icon =" icon-home "type =" type1 \u2033 href = ""] [\/ social_icon]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

For 216 PLN we have a very pleasant room, which will especially be appreciated by fans of the Trio from Belleville and trains. It is clean, nice, pleasant and with a restaurant downstairs, which can save a hungry cyclist (with discount 20% for hotel guests) and breakfast included.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Route through Moravia<\/h2>\n

We leave Ostrava in the morning & #8211; we are not driving in the optimal distance towards Olomouc. Looking at the accommodation infrastructure, this is one of the few reasonable goals.<\/p>\n

\"morawy\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Ultimately, we get:<\/strong><\/p>\n

30km on Friday<\/strong> & #8211; access from Cha\u0142upki to Ostrava + honorary rune around the city (link to Stravy<\/a>)<\/p>\n

162km \/ 2200m on Saturday<\/strong> & #8211; from Ostrava to Olomouc (link to Stravy<\/a>). The route is slightly shorter than planned.<\/p>\n

154km \/ 2200m on Sunday<\/strong> & #8211; from Olomouc to Cha\u0142upki (link to Stravy<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Is this a route that I can recommend with a clear conscience? Yes, because it is pretty and pleasant. However, I can not guarantee that it is the best that can meet you in this area. The potential is colossal and the number of routes marked as & #8222; cycling & #8221; overwhelms. I suspect that, like in Podkarpacie, you can drive there for weeks and constantly find new asphalt & #8211; both very good and only a little good & #8230; and I suspect that there are plenty of gravel and terrain.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t
