Hiking is definitely a great hobby. It is recommended to do it as often as possible because it is really healthy. One good thing you can do while traveling across the world is to hike in the places you are visiting. Personally I would recommend you Prague for hiking. The city is really amazing and except all the hiking options you are going to have, you will have the chance to do some remarkable sightseeing as well. Of course if you are convinced that you want to visit the city of Prague the next step you have to do is to find yourself a decent accommodation. By the way hiking near Prague is also an option you should give a thought. But anyway, talking about the accommodation I should mention some important tips that will save you lots of troubles. If you want to find a good accommodation, make sure your start doing a research on internet at least a month earlier than your arrival. If you want to know, Apartments Prague can be quite expensive even compared to apartments in Poznan or a nice Apartment Milan. This is why if your budget is limited it is better to spend less money for accommodation and more money for sightseeing and hiking.
Anyway, talking about hiking you should be aware of your condition. Place that you should visit if you have hiking intentions is Karlstejn Castle. Really amazing place – you will have the chance to see this amazing place and hike as well. Of course it also depends on the type of hiking you want to do…but anyway you can give a try to the riverside trails in the region. The good thing here is that you don’t really need any type of special equipment…of course if you are doing this during November or December don’t forget to take some warm clothes with you because the temperatures may be freezing.
Other option I can think of and therefore recommend you is to visit the outdoor supply stores. There you will be able to find lots of maps and books about hiking in Prague or the areas near the city. This is a really easy method because all you have to do is to pick up a region, take a map and go.
If you need more ideas for hiking regions you can take a look at this website – http://www.czechfunfan.com/en/index.html . I’ve used it a couple of times and every time I was able to find the information I was looking for. But anyway my personal recommendation is to start with the castle I’ve mentioned above – it is a great place – you will see forests, fields and the castle itself and if you are an expert hiker you can even reach a few small villages. And last but not least I can recommend you one more website you should use when it comes to planning a hiking trip – www.mapy.cz . The information there is really useful!
