A 29.2 km solo ridge walk for view collectors — the full Solanská hora massif from Bělušice, all three tops, down to Třebívlice.

No marked trail serves the Solanská hora crest, so bring a map you trust — you pick your own way onto the ridge and between the tops. In exchange, you will almost certainly have all three summits and their views to yourself.

From the Bělušice stop the way works east through Chrámce, Lužice and Dřevce, rolling farmland with the massif growing ahead. The climb to Solanská hora itself lands you on the open summit slope — one of the great wide views of the region, the lower Ohře basin at your feet with Hazmburk and Říp floating in it. The crest walk continues over Dlouhý vrch to Třtín, whose eastern top repeats the panorama from a new angle; between the tops the ridge is quiet woods.

The descent drops south through Skalice and Dřemčice into Třebívlice, where the little station connects via Lovosice back to Prague.
