Hranicná: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Hraničná combines historic landmarks with winter sports and signposted trails. The chapel in Hraničná has granite walls and a barrel vault built from bricks. Its roof is covered with shingles, and two small windows feature decorative grilles. In 2013, the chapel was reconstructed by Spolek přátel obce Janov nad Nisou.

Culture

The Stations of the Cross was built in 1878 on the property of Josef Klamt. It was restored and consecrated in 1903.

The memorial to the victims of the First World War in Hraničná was erected in 1930 by Josef Stumpe in honour and memory of the sons who fell in the First World War. In 2004, it was reconstructed by Spolek přátel obce Janov nad Nisou. The inscriptions on the memorial, including the names of the fallen, were renewed in 2025.

Winter sports

The “U Vodárny” ski area offers individual and group ski and snowboard lessons for children and adults. Snow tubing on inflatable rings is also part of the offering – an experience for the whole family.

“U Vodárny” is located at Hraničná 1348 and has three ski slopes. If access to Bedřichov is closed, the ski area can be reached for lessons and skiing via Vyšehradská and Hraničná streets, up to the upper lift station.

Trails and landscape

The Stations of the Cross can only be reached on foot via signposted hiking trails: from Janov nad Nisou via the yellow trail, from Vysoký hřeben via the green trail, from Bedřichov, or from the other side, from the valley of the Bílá (Rýnovická) Nisa in Hraničná, via the blue trail.

Trniště is a 15-metre-high granite rock with steps carved into the stone and a viewing platform with a railing. The view from Trniště is now partly obscured by mature trees.
