The Lovoš ( German Lobosch , 570 m) is a mountain in the Bohemian Central Mountains in the Czech Republic . The double-peaked conical shape with the rugged southern flank, steep at 30 °, is striking. Since 1948 the mountain has been under state protection as a national nature reserve on 74.53 hectares .
Location and surroundings
The Lovoš is located in the left Elbe part of the Bohemian Central Mountains immediately northwest of Lovosice ( Lobositz ). At its foot are the Elbe village Malé Žernoseky ( Kleintschernosek ) and the small towns of Oparno ( Wopparn ), Bílinka and Vchynice .
The North Bohemian Transversal Railway runs in the Lovosice – Teplice section on the eastern and northern flanks . Europastraße 55 runs to the west and has been running around the mountain as the new D8 motorway since December 2016 .
At the top there is a tourist hut of the Club českých turistů ( Club of Czech Tourists / KČT).
geology
The main peak of Lovoš consists mainly of basalt . The secondary peak called Kybyčka ( Kibitschken , 489 m) is made of phonolite (Klingstein).
Shack
A first hut on the summit was built between 1881 and 1892. After a fire in 1918, Prince von Schwarzenberg had a new hut built in 1924. After the Second World War it gradually fell into disrepair. After a reconstruction from 1977, it has been in operation again since 1981.
view
The view from the platform at the top of the mountains of the Bohemian Uplands is picturesque. Above all, the massive shape of Milešovka ( Milleschauer ) with its neighbor Kletečná ( Kletschen ) in the northwest is impressive . To the east the view falls on the course of the Elbe with the Porta Bohemica . The wide Egerniederung extends to the south , there the landmark of the Bohemian Uplands - the Hazmburk ( Hasenburg ) - is visible 10 km to the southwest .
Paths to the summit
- From Bílinka a road leads to the summit, which is also the most comfortable ascent. This route is marked with yellow signs.
- The Lovosice město stop on the Prague – Děčín railway line is a good starting point . From there, a green hiking trail leads through the steep southern flank of the mountain to the summit.
- From Malé Žernoseky it is also possible to climb along the yellow marking. The path first leads a piece through the Opárenské údolí ( Wopparner Valley ) and then along the Císařské schody (Imperial Steps ) up through a beautiful deciduous forest.
- On the route of the former bowling alley , the shortest route up the mountain leads from the Oparno train station on a blue marked route.
