The countryside just north of Brno is quite hilly and picturesque with grain fields dotting
the hillsides.

Agriculture is very much a part of the economy in this area.

One hour's drive north and west of Brno is the cross-country ski paradise of
Nove Mesto. Over 180 kms of tracked trails and in some cases 6 to 8 tracks
wide. It also boasts a small ski-hill which is pictured here.

The tracks run over rolling hills and are very popular with not only those from Brno but
also Prague.

Small towns dot the hillside making it tempting to visit local pubs for refreshment
and a warm-up.
