Parking both cars and buses is possible on both ends of the trail, this over the villages of Kandrac and Louňovice pod Blaníkem. On the Velký Blaník mountain top there is a view tower with the possibility of refreshment, there are resting places built on the trail.

There is a steep ascending before the Velký Blaník mountain top. Therefore we recommend to the less fit visitors to choose a little bit longer route along the wood path.

The Blaník Knight is the patron and as well the guide along the entire route. He acquaints with the nature of Velký Blaník and its surroundings, the history of its settlement or the Baník Knights reputations. You can see a copy of the National Theatre foundation stone coming from Blaník or the Knight sculpture.  Also an outdoor geologic exposition of the Podblanicko area is a part of the trail where 21 big samples of rocks are exhibited.
