We can say that Hukvaldy is known twice. First as a ruin of the Hukvaldy Castle, once the biggest castle in Moravia and second as a birthplace of our famous composer Leoš Janáček, whose natal home is now open as his museum.
An appropriate starting point of your trip is for example Frýdek-Místek where from the blue-marked footpath will lead you to Hukvaldy. This trail goes through Palkovické Hůrky and is about 12 kilometers in length. This route is enriched by a nature trail as well.
