This mountain range, besides Prague, is one of the most popular tourist areas of the Czech Republic thanks to its beautiful wooded nature and many opportunities for sports activities, and is therefore increasingly being discovered by the Dutch.

Hikers can enjoy a network of marked trails, along waterfalls, streams, mountain lakes, glacier valleys and viewpoints. In the summer, you can also get to the peaks from various holiday resorts via a cable car and chairlifts.
