Overview
This day trip combines a walk through the village below the castle, the climb up to Karlštejn itself and the quiet countryside beyond Prague. We travel in a group of no more than seven guests and keep the day unhurried.
- The castle of Charles IV
- Berounka river valley
- Small group of up to 7
- A guide who lives here
Why go here
Karlštejn is one of the best-known Czech castles and still easy to reach from Prague. With a small group we can move faster and take the quieter paths that coach groups never see.
What you'll experience
Views over the Berounka valley, the story of Charles IV, an easy walk and time for lunch.
