Golf and Iconic Automobiles in the Mountains
Are you passionate about golf and mountain trekking? If so, the Beskydy Mountains in the northeastern region of Czechia are sure to capture your heart, along with your friends. Here, you’ll find the largest golf resort in Czechia, known as the 55 HOLES GOLF DESTINATION, which features a combination of two elite courses: the Prosper Golf Resort Čeladná and the Golf & Ski Resort Ostravice.

Choose to stay at one of the resort’s three hotels and unwind in the exceptional local wellness center.
Looking for something out of the ordinary? Venture onto one of the numerous hiking trails that meander through the Beskydy Mountains. If you prefer to mix activities, enhance your stay with a visit to the Radegast Brewery, which is renowned for producing one of the most celebrated Czech beers. Of course, savoring a taste is a must! If you’re keen, reserve a spot in the Radegast Beer Academy and master the art of pouring the perfect pint of Czech beer.
If automobiles are your passion, a visit to Kopřivnice—home to the oldest car manufacturer in Czechia, TATRA—will be a treat. At the TATRA Passenger Car Museum, you can marvel at unique exhibits, including the cabriolet crafted for Stalin and the extraordinary aerosledge, as well as the TATRA Truck Museum, which showcases the truck associated with Karel Loprais and his victorious run in the Paris–Dakar Rally.
You can experience a men’s weekend getaway in the Beskydy Mountains even during the winter months. Simply trade in your golf clubs for cross-country skis. The greens will transform into meticulously maintained cross-country skiing areas, or you can embark on the expansive network of cross-country trails known as the Beskydy Magistrala.
A Beer Trail Through the Highest Peaks in Czechia
Are you intrigued by the idea of combining mountain hikes with the flavors of Czech beer? Then set out on the Krkonoše Beer Trail, the only mountain beer trail in Europe that can be conquered in just one weekend. This unique path connects a variety of local microbreweries, allowing you to indulge in an array of flavors while also exploring the most stunning parts of the highest mountains in Czechia. Choose from two route lengths of either 30.5 or 38.5 kilometers. You can opt to traverse it in one day, or you might prefer to break it up over multiple days with an overnight stay in one of the charming mountain huts or even right at a brewery.
You can enrich your mountain experience with a visit to one of the largest modern fortifications in Europe—the impressive artillery fort at Stachelberg, which features a remarkable underground system of corridors and chambers extending 3.5 kilometers, situated 25 to 60 meters beneath the surface.
F1 Racing, UNESCO Heritage, and the Czech Yellowstone
Combine the thrill of racing with some tranquil downtime in Lázně. Head over to Funarena in Cheb, which boasts the largest and most modern racing kart circuit in Czechia. Here, you can feel like an F1 driver on the specially designed asphalt track, built to meet the standards of the world automobile federation!
After a day filled with adrenaline on the track, take the time to relax in the nearby Františkovy Lázně, part of the UNESCO-listed Czech spa triangle, renowned for historically hosting notable figures like Beethoven and Goethe.
Not far from Františkovy Lázně, you can also discover the Czech Yellowstone. This fascinating area, known as the Soos National Nature Reserve, resembles a bizarrely eroded lunar landscape.
