Chairlift to the ridge, a walk to the waterfall, bobsled back down. It all starts a few hundred metres from the apartments.
In 2021 the Hlídka na Stráži viewpoint park opened on Stráž hill above Rokytnice, with four lookouts named after the figures in the town coat of arms – Fox, Bear, Sheep and Miner. An easy outing even with small children; from the lookouts you see all of Rokytnice, Lysá hora and Kotel. Park at Hotel Stráž (paid) or for free on Sachrův hřeben – about 1.5 km away.

A twenty-metre cascade on the Huťský brook, which rises below the Dvoračky chalet. From the apartments it is an hour on the blue trail, manageable for smaller children too. From the waterfall the blue trail continues to Dvoračky – make it a loop: walk to the waterfall, up to Dvoračky, on to Ručičky and down by chairlift or bobsled.

The Horní Domky chairlift (600 m from the apartments) takes you up to the Lovčenka chalet in 8 minutes. From there it is 300 m to the Ručičky junction – five trails, wooden sculptures and a playground – and just under two kilometres on the green trail to Dvoračky, a mountain chalet at 1,140 m with a restaurant and views from Ještěd to Trosky.

A full-day trip: chairlift to below Ručičky, then via Dvoračky and the Kotelní saddle to Růženčina zahrádka and the Elbe spring at 1,387 m. From the top station it is 7 km each way; with breaks allow 7–8 hours. With smaller children we recommend the shorter version to Dvoračky only.

At the bottom station of the Horní Domky chairlift, 600 m from the apartments, is the longest bobsled track in the Giant Mountains – 1,674 m long, up to 40 km/h – and a rope park with courses for children and adults. Right next door is the Mountain Base e-bike and scooter rental.
