The glass trail in Brniště was jointly created for you in 2023 by the Podral Foundation ZOD, the municipality of Brniště and the company Pačinek Glass. The trail leads from the car park behind the village (from the Prominent shop, Brniště 4) to the Schöter Chapel on the hill towards the village of Valtinov. The length of the trail is 1.8 km (3.6 km on the way back).

On the Glass Trail in Brniště you will encounter glass in various forms, shapes and colours. At the beginning of the trail you will be greeted by the Glass Tree from the Pačinek Glass factory with its colourful branches made of blown glass. Along the way, the glass trimmings from crystal chandeliers and the glass beads and rods that mark the trail will enchant you with their sparkle and colourful reflections. Thanks to a little magic of our glassmakers, you can imagine the original appearance of St. Nicholas Church from the early 19th century, when the church tower was one floor higher. During a great storm, almost the entire church was destroyed by a lightning strike. On the trail, you will see works of art by such masters as the legendary artist and designer Bořek Šípek or one of the most important contemporary Czech glass artists Jiří Pačinek, as well as works created by Czech and German children as part of a cross-border meeting. You too can create your own glass mandala on the resting place above the village, sit, relax and enjoy the surrounding beautiful landscape. There are various sports and games for children along the way. As a reward for following the trail up to the hill above the village, where the Schröter Chapel is located, you will have a beautiful view of the countryside from the place where Franz Josef I looked out at his troops in 1899, and of course there is another glass surprise waiting for you.
