FLOW TRAIL & SKILL ZONE
A new centre and a trail for beginners have been opened in Ještěd!
A new area for biking beginners and everybody who wants to improve their mountain biking skills was opened by the Ještěd ski resort on Sunday 16th July 2023. The new centre called “Flow trail & Skill zone” meant for mountain biking education is free of charge and ideal also for families with children.
The aim of the newly built beginner’s zone and kid’s cycling trail was mainly to expand the offer of summer services for cyclists while focusing mainly on families with children and beginners. The educational centre offers a 200-metre-long practice zone to improve biking skills, clay and wooden obstacles of various difficulty levels, a special obstacle to train balance and a section with stones. The 230-metre-long trail contains nine banked curves and a lot of obstacles too.

On the occasion of the educational centre opening, the Ještěd ski resort offered free Skalka chairlift tickets to all children and young adults (max. 18 years old) on Sunday. What’s more, the smallest visitors could also borrow bikes for free. Instructional rides and demonstrations of how to ride over obstacles properly were available too. What’s more, sunny weather inspired people to visit the local restaurant and the popular summer terrace next to the chairlift station.
The Flow trail & Skill zone was added to the bike park, which has a long tradition and contains two official trails already. Visitors can zip down the hills with mountain carts and off-road scooters all summer long and enjoy the Fun zone, a playground, slides and a trampoline with kids. Amusing educational hiking trails called “Hidden stories” are worth trying too. What’s more, all activities at Ještěd are well-accessible. It takes only a few minutes to travel by tram from the centre of Liberec and only an hour by car from Prague.
