Local attractions
The village lies in the heart of the Central Bohemian Highlands, and thus is popular with walkers and cyclists alike. The mountain Sedlo is located about 3 kilometres south of the village and offers excellent lookout points over the surrounding landscape.
A 21-metre high lookout tower has been built on a nearby unnamed knoll in 2003.[4]
Transportation
The II/240 and II/260 roads run through the village. It is served by local buses to Verneřice, Ústí nad Labem, Litoměřice and Úštěk running mostly in hourly intervals.
The Velké Březno, Verneřice & Úštěk Local Railway had a station here from its opening in 1890 until closure in 1978.[5] The station has been reopened as a museum about the line, which is being restored by volunteers as a heritage railway.[6]
