The Czech
mountains
Safe hiking
in a blaze of colour
What’s unique about
the Czech mountains
and something they all have
in common? That you will
always be able to find your
way! You can roam through
the picturesque Czech
mountain landscape
with absolutely
no fear of getting lost.
Every trail is assigned its own
colour – blue, red, yellow,
green. Where paths cross,
you simply follow the colour
blaze belonging to your trail.
The paths are designated
on hiking maps in the same
colours. The Czech Hiking
Club takes excellent care
of the dense network of trail
blazes. There are so many
of them – on trees, rocks and
other objects – that the next
one will usually be visible
from the one you’re
standing at.
At trail crossings and other
important places, you will
find signposts pointing you
towards your next destination
and stating the number of
kilometres until you reach it.
And don’t worry: In the
Czech mountains you won’t
come across any dangerous
wild animals. The only – and
very rare – exception is the
occasional bear that may stray
into the deep forests of the
Beskydy Mountains along the
Slovak border. However, the
chance of meeting a bear is
practically nil.

The ultimate
adrenaline rush
The Krkonoše Mountains
are the highest Czech
mountain range. From
every perspective, whether
looking up from the foothills
or down from a bird’s eye
perspective, the panorama of
the Krkonoše Mountains is
magnificent. Their individual
peaks are unmistakeable.
Each mountain has its own
characteristic face, quickly
recognizable even by the
occasional visitor.
The border mountain range
is distinctive, with poetically
named rocks scattered here
and there (Dívčí, Mužské,
�½enské kameny – Girls’,
Men’s, Women’s rocks);
some peaks are bare, while
others are covered with
grass and meadows awash
in wildflowers. In some places
the mountain crest drops off
sharply to a valley (Sněžné
jámy, Labsk�½ důl), putting
the final touch to the drama
of the landscape.
to the blue beginner’s trail,
which is suitable even for
children. Another trail leads
from the upper station of the
Hromovka cableway; it is
a single trail for experienced
cyclists. You will also find
a mountain-bike hire service
here.

Vertical Park,
Harrachov-M�½to
This new park offers exciting
fun for all adrenaline

heights. You can try the

Children will certainly enjoy
the children’s trampoline and
the mini zoo.

The Krkonoše Mountains
are the ideal place for physical
activity. For hiking, Nordic
walking, mountain biking
and – more than anywhere
else – for a rush
of adrenaline.

Bobsleigh Track

Harrachov or Špindlerův
Ml�½n isn’t enough for you,
then you can combine it
with a visit to the adjacent
Monkey Park in either
town. In a natural forest
environment, you can
overcome obstacles on ropes
suspended between trees, and
in Harrachov you can even
slide over a mountain lake.

the Alpine-like countryside
will reward you for your
effort with impressive views
of the Obří důl valley. You
can conserve your energy

Trail of Czech-Polish
Friendship
The red-marked trail along
the mountain crest is nearly
30 km long and traces the
border between the Czech
Republic and Poland. It
affords fantastic views of the
entire mountain range, deep
gorges (Sněžné jámy) and
mountain moorlands and
meadows (near the Luční
bouda chalet). The steep
ascent to Sněžka is supported
by climbing chains. There are
chalets offering refreshments
along the entire trail.

countryside of the Labe (Elbe)
River valley ends with a steep
ascent along the waterfall and
rocks to the Labská bouda
chalet.
The countryside of the
Šumava region around the
Czech-Bavarian border
is poetic and soothing,
characterized by deep
forests, wild mountain
rapids, lakes and moors,
and blossoming hillsides
and pastures. Water is an
inseparable part of the
Šumava landscape.

Canoeing on the Vltava
Anyone interested in
recreation will find a real
paradise in Šumava. An
impressive number of natural
and historical monuments
are connected by a dense
network of cycle paths. In the
past, a network of paths was
established for the purpose
of border protection and was
accessible only to military
vehicles. Now, the narrow but
high-quality paths are open
to cyclists. The most popular
paths are found around the
town of Horská Kvilda, near
the source of the Vltava River,
and in the region of Kašperské
Hory. Less demanding is the
terrain of the Šumava plains,
which has minimal elevation
changes.
Vydra River area
The rocky segment of the
Vydra River between Ant�½gl
and Čeňkova pila offers
breathtaking scenery of wild
rapids with cascades, huge
boulders, and eroded “giant
kettles”.
Sailboats on the Lipno Reservoir
A cove on the Lipno Reservoir
Plešné Lake and Plech�½ Hill
Plešné Lake is one of the
typical glacial lakes found
in the Šumava region. A steep
cliff towers some 300 metres
above the lake’s surface.
We recommend starting
in the village of Nová Pec and
following the yellow-marked
trail to the top of Plech�½ Hill,
which is the highest peak of
the Czech part of the Šumava
(1,378 m). The circuit back
to Plešné Lake follows an
extraordinarily impressive
nature trail called “Spirit
of the Primaeval Forest”.
Climbing the steep slopes
in an ancient forest which
has remained untouched
by human hands is a real
experience.
Boubínsk�½ Primaeval Forest
A unique reserve in the very
heart of the Šumava. Some
trees here are up to 50 metres
high and are more than 400
years old. The best way to
discover the ancient forest is
along the 4-km Boubínská
Trail, which starts in the
village of Kubova Huť.
What to do when it’s

Wellness
Sport arena Lipno
Three whirlpool baths,
Finnish and herbal saunas,
a Kneipp walkway, massage
showers and massages.
All this with a beautiful
view of the Lipno Reservoir,
providing relaxation for
body and spirit.
Rožmberk Castle
If you love culture and
fairy tales, don’t miss the
summertime night tours
with guides dressed in
traditional costumes.
www.hrad-rozmberk.eu
Švihov Water Castle
This monumental castle
with a water fortification
system near Klatovy was
one of the best-defended
castles of its time and is
definitely worth seeing.
Jezerní slať (Lake Moor)
Moors are a typical feature of
the Šumava landscape. The
upland moors accessible from
Kvilda with their remarkable
flora and fauna are visible
along a short nature trail.
Třístoličník Hill
This peak at the Czech-
German border is located
1,311 metres above sea level.
At the top are three rocks
where, according to legend,
three kings – from Bohemia,
Austria and Bavaria – used to
meet. We recommend starting
the climb from the village of
Nové Údolí.
Source of the Vltava River
From the village of Kvilda you
can set off on a moderately
difficult trail to the source of
the Vltava River. The longest
Czech river begins on the
slope of Černá hora (Black
Mountain). Its spring flows
from a drainage conduit
of a medieval mine and is
characterized by a high silver
content.

Tips for
your trips

Špičák Bike Park
The downhill runs, which
in winter are full of skiers,
in summer become the Špičák
Bike Park for mountain
biking. A cableway provides
a comfortable ride to the top,
and then all you have to do is
to assess your skills and level
of courage and make your way
down one of the trails.

Do you like to ride the river?
Then you will be in your
element in South Bohemia.
There are many places
