WHAT TO EXPECT
Pick-up in Prague between 8:30-9:30*
1️⃣ Viewpoint Máj (Vltava Horseshoe Bend)
Start your day with a peaceful 3 km forest walk to one of the Czech Republic’s most iconic viewpoints. Overlooking a deep bend of the Vltava River, Máj Viewpoint has been a beloved spot for over a century — with the country’s oldest marked trail once running below and historic steamships still passing by in summer.
We’ll take time to visit three different lookouts, each offering its own unique panorama. The trail is mostly shaded and not crowded, making it an ideal start for nature lovers.
Physical demand: 🟡 Moderate (forest trail, gentle incline)
1.5 hours ● Guided walk ● Admission Free
2️⃣ Žampach Viaduct
A quick stop to admire the tallest stone railway bridge in the Czech Republic, towering 41 meters over the valley. Built in 1900, this elegant viaduct is still in use today, carrying local trains across a dramatic archway of granite blocks.
It’s a perfect photo opportunity and a surprising hidden gem along our countryside route.
🟢 Easy (near roadside stop)
15 min ● Short stop (pass by) ● Admission Free
🍽️ Traditional Lunch in a Brewery
When in the land of beer, stopping by a local brewery is more than tradition — it’s a cultural must. We’ll visit one of Prague’s small craft breweries, where you’ll have time to enjoy a freshly poured pint or try a beer tasting flight of different styles.
Hungry? You’re free to order a meal at your own expense, or just relax and sip in the garden.
Physical demand: 🔘 Not applicable (seated break)
1 hour ● beer tasing or another 1 drink included
3️⃣ Průhonice Chateau Park (UNESCO)
To end the day, we’ll take a peaceful stroll through the UNESCO-listed Průhonice Park, one of Europe’s largest and most beautiful landscaped gardens. With seasonal colors changing throughout the year — blossoms in spring, golden leaves in fall, and quiet elegance in winter — it’s a picture-perfect setting for reflection and photos.
❄️Please note: In case of severe weather (e.g. icy conditions in winter), the park may be temporarily closed. If that happens, the visit will be replaced with an equally scenic walk — such as a nearby chateau or forest trail.
Physical demand: 🟢 Easy (well-maintained gravel paths)
1-1.5 hod ● Guided Walk ● Admission Included
Drop-off in Prague between 16:00-17:00*
