10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Cesky Krumlov That You Shouldn't Miss
The southwestern castle city of Cesky Krumlov is one of the Czech Republic’s finest medieval sites. Its Old Town is a UNESCO-designated World Heritage Site, a maze of twisting alleys built around the extensive Cesky Krumlov castle. Saunter through crooked, cobblestone streets on foot and soak up the atmosphere of this impeccably preserved medieval gem. The gushing Vltava, popular with rafting enthusiasts, darts through the town.

The exhibition itself is very well designed with correct amount of information splited across the house rooms. A suggestion: in the first two rooms maybe subnumbers can be assigned to the objects so the photography lames can understand the tools mentioned in the audio guide.

If you find yourself in Cesky Krumlov and want to take a break from the in-town sightseeing and crowds, this moderate half-day hike is well worth it! I did the hike on relatively hot/humid Sunday in late August and the small restaurant on top was open so a great opportunity to grab a quick lunch and cold drinks. The Klobasa I ordered was deer sausage and quite tasty and went well with the local Czech beer. As to the hike, here is my experience: 1. The hike took about 4 hours, just under 2 hours uphill and about 1.5 downhill with a half hour lunch break. It was about an 11 mile round trip hike from the Cesky Krumlov town square. There was very little foot traffic on the hike, so it was mostly solitude. 2. Most of the hike is on paved road, then gravel road, and finally about the last 1.5 miles being through the woods on a wooded, dirt forest trail. The last few miles of the hike are very steep and probably not something you want to do after it has rained as would be slippery. 3. As mentioned in an earlier post, the starting point where you start seeing the trail markers (green strip between two white stripes) is just after the train station. Once you start seeing them (there are sufficient numbers to keep you from getting lost and at every decision point such as right or left), just follow them and they will guide you through any forks in the trail or turns all the way up to the backside of the facility on top of Klet Mountain. Also, follow any large arrows you will encounter and they are usually accompanied by a trail marker to verify that is what it is for. Prior to the train station, you will not see much directional info, if any at all. The Tourist Info office in the town square can provide a map of the trail route, but it is really only useful for the twists and turns as the trail markings are all you need.

As we did not find the right way during the Easter time with snow some time ago, we wanted to reach it now by car (easy, but walking next time preferred). It is a long narrow way through the woods, it was foggy and raining and we did not meet any car opposite, good! Then 1 km walking tour from parking and you see the romantic medieval beauty! The tower was due to bad weather conditions closed and no Lipno sea view was available...but despite of these limitations...it was NICE!

Due to the Covid 19 situation the city has only a few international visitors, most of the tourists we saw and heard spoke Czech.All were enjoying the beauty of this stunning historical city, the castle and the bridges spanning the river, meandering the town. We had a cool, clear day offering the best views.

This place was a fun quick stop in Ck, easily worth the 4 euros per person. We had a couple drinks beforehand , and laughed like children through the mazes. Not crowded in September and very enjoyable!!

The main square deserves attention due to its rich history and copious decoration. Its square-shaped plan and arrangement of houses and streets are clearly linked to the medieval foundations of the city.

Namesti Svornosti - the main square with the TI, ATMs, and taxis - dominates the Old Town and marks the center of the peninsula. Lined with a mix of Renaissance and Baroque homes of burghers (all built on 12th century Gothic foundations), the main square has a grand charm. Locals possessively guard this space. McDonald's tried 3 times to get a spot here but was turned away each time. The Town Hall (the crenellated white building, on the right) flies both the Czech flag and the town flag, which shows the rose symbol of the Rozmberk family, who ruled the town for 300 years. If you are planning to linger in this city for 2-3 days, that's all restaurants, hotels, and sights are within a few minutes' walk of this square. Today, this is the pretty big square for small town is part of an unprecedented time of peace and prosperity for the Czech people.
