Koupaliště Sobotka
Koupaliště Sobotka welcomes its visitors on the southern edge of Český ráj in the Královéhradecký kraj. If you are planning a trip to this part of the Jičín district and the summer weather is favourable, please do stop by. There is nothing quite like taking a little break from visiting monuments and wandering through nature. Recreation by the water is beneficial for both body and soul, and it is therefore good to indulge in it from time to time. So, what is it that we are actually inviting you to?
The municipal swimming pool is located within the local campsite grounds, approximately 1 km from the centre. The swimming pool lies in the middle of a sunny plot surrounded by nature. At the same time, it is easily accessible by car, thanks to a nearby road and a car park right at the entrance. A hiking and cycling trail also runs within walking distance. However, you can also arrive by train; the railway station in Sobotka is the starting point for the blue tourist trail. This trail winds around the well-known zámek Humprecht, which creates a beautiful backdrop for the surrounding landscape.
The swimming pool itself consists of a rectangular concrete tank measuring 60 x 30 m. The water depth ranges between 1.2–4 m. The site is known for its very clean water, which, however, tends to be colder. The water has a regulated inflow and outflow; it is a natural swimming pool that is not chemically treated. The banks of the tank are sloped, making them a good place to warm up and relax. The swimming pool does not have any modern water attractions, yet it is a popular destination for many water enthusiasts.
The facilities at the swimming pool consist of grassy sunbathing areas with the possibility of finding shade under the crowns of mature trees. Children will appreciate the space for frolicking on the local playground. It features swings, a trampoline, a sandpit, a slide, playhouses, and other attractions. If you have not brought a snack with you, it does not matter. You can get refreshments at the local bistro, which offers a sufficient selection of food and drinks. Athletes will certainly enjoy using the newly renovated volleyball court with white sand. You can rent a ball there for a fee.
The swimming pool is a great tip for a hot summer day, and you will undoubtedly enjoy plenty of fun there. You can also combine your trip in the Královéhradecký region with a visit to hrad Kost. You can see folk architecture at the Vesnická památkové rezervace Vesec or while walking around Šolcův statek. For nature, we recommend heading to the Prachovské skály; they are guaranteed to captivate you with their beauty.
Český ráj is also a tourist paradise. There are many beautiful attractions and interesting places in a small area.
