Treasures of the Šumava holiday region

The Šumava holiday region is a place of peace and relaxation, but also a place for sporting activities and cultural discoveries

Enjoy the picturesque landscape of the Bohemian Forest on your hikes and walks and discover magical places of energy and power. Hiking reveals the character of the region, its culture and its special features. You can pause again and again and let your gaze wander over the rolling hills.

Whether you want to cycle leisurely along picturesque rivers or challenge yourself on the mountain routes - the Bohemian Forest has something for every cyclist. The routes are well signposted and lead through idyllic villages, past impressive viewpoints and through unspoilt forests and meadows.

In addition to hiking and cycling, there are many other activities that you should not miss out on. For example, skiing in the Hochficht family ski area, cross-country skiing on the high-altitude trails of the Böhmerwald Nordic Centre or letting off steam in the new AQARO adventure pool. In summer you can simply relax at the bathing lake or natural river pool. Adventure-seekers will find their thrills in the high ropes park, golfers will have a great game in the Šumava Golf Park and anglers will enjoy fishing in the Große Mühl. Some adventures you should have experienced:

Winter on the Hochficht promises skiing fun between three mountains and three countries for the whole family

Numerous child-friendly areas and offers make young and old, big and small, beginners and pros happy. Culinary delights and service are not neglected in the family ski area either.

The high-altitude trails are groomed for skaters and classic skiers

Almost 78 kilometres of trails of varying degrees of difficulty lie at the feet of cross-country skiers in the Bohemian Forest Nordic Centre. At the start in Schöneben there is a Spi-Lo where children are introduced to cross-country skiing in a playful way. There are further access points in Grünwald and Oberhaag near Aigen-Schlägl.
