Winter in Vsetín – mountain hotel Vsacký Cáb and Nordic ski center

In the western part of the Beskids, between the Rožnov and Vsetín Bečva rivers, in the midst of the mountainous Wallachia, lies the picturesque area of Vsacký Cáb with its namesake cottage at an elevation of 842 m above sea level.

New edition

Thanks to its excellent location, it has the largest tourist, cycling, and winter cross-country skiing trail intersections in the Beskids. The main ridge trail, the Beskydy Magistral, marked in red, starts in Třinec and ends in Vsetín. There is easy year-round access by vehicle (including bus). There is parking at the hotel, large grassy fields, playgrounds, and outdoor fire pits. The hotel is equipped with rooms with private facilities and suite rooms, a sauna, and a whirlpool. The local home cuisine with Wallachian fireplace specialties is excellent. 

In winter, it becomes a paradise for cross-country skiing enthusiasts. Notoriously known among skiers is the fifty-kilometer Beskydy Valašská 50: a race organized by KČT along the ridge from Bumbálka through Třeštík, Benešky, Soláň, Vsacký Cáb, and Dušná to Vsetín. 

You will also find shorter recreational trails:

Dušná – Vsacký Cáb, 5 km: the trail runs off the road and is groomed by a snowcat. 

Around Vsacký Cáb, 7 km: from the parking lot at the hotel to the Ptáčnice crossroads, to the Baťa educational trail to Cábské jezírko and back.

Petr Bende is embarking on a traditional Christmas tour across the Czech Republic, this year also with Tomáš Matonoha and Bára Stěpánová.

Singer Petr Bende will once again resonate on stages across the Czech Republic with his traditional Christmas concerts. The tour will start on November 28 in Zlín and will last until December 22, where he will perform in Brno. The tour will bring a mix of festive atmosphere, music, and memories. This year's concerts promise a unique experience, not only due to the music but also because of special guests and exceptional performances.

We invite you to the National Theatre Ballet SCHEHERAZADE.

The story of Scheherazade is known from the oriental tale One Thousand and One Nights, and its archetypal principle has inspired world art. Nikolai A. Rimsky-Korsakov created a symphonic suite of the same name, and Mikhail Fokin staged the first ballet in 1910. Now, choreographer Mauro Bigonzetti has been captivated by Scheherazade's beauty and wit, resulting in a new original production for the National Theatre Ballet. Unlike the Paris premiere, he has placed only two main characters on stage, King Shahryar and Scheherazade. They represent the masculine and feminine principles, balance, and an equal authentic relationship. The fate of the ancient "Shahrazad" was fulfilled in Persia in the 10th century. However, its message is meta-temporal and meta-spatial. These are deeply internalized themes that are passed down from generation to generation and always find a new form adapted to the culture of the time in which they appear.

Irish Wolfhound: The largest dog in the world deceives with its body.

The Irish Wolfhound, an impressively majestic dog, is known as the largest breed in the world. This breed excels in its size, strength, but also in its gentle nature and loyalty. Its history dates back thousands of years when Irish warriors used these imposing dogs as fighters and hunters. Wolfhounds earned their reputation in battles against wolves and were also valued as hunters of large game, including deer and wild boar. But how did these dogs come to the Czech lands, where they are currently also winning the hearts of dog lovers?
