New Year's Hike to the Šumava Mountains ❄️
Details
Hi all!
To begin with with the most important note, this hike is organized from Plzeň (I'm not coming to Prague), but since it is not so complicated to join us (just takes longer...), I thought perhaps someone would like to join us from Prague, too. So there is this option 🙂
If you feel like joining us, you have to take the R train towards Železná Ruda - leaving Praha-Hlavní nádraží at 7:05. We would get on the train and join you in Plzeň-Hlavní nádraží. The same for the way back, I (and possibly the others from Plzeň) would get off again in Plzeň, and you could just continue further to Prague.

All information as follows:
Let's start the new year in the best possible way!
Join us for a winter hike to the lovely Šumava mountains. 🥾
Highlights of the hike:
- winter hike in the Šumava Protected Lanscape Area
- the largest natural lake of Czechia (yes, the two small lakes!)
Here is the approximate trail

Nevertheless, I reserve the right to adjust the trail depending on the group and weather conditions :-)
Wear waterproof shoes good for hiking! Take food for most of the day with you, there won't be anything to get in the forest. Taking a bottle with warm tea is also recommended.
The pace is always adjusted to the group, but please note that it does involve some small climbing in a winter season, so a decent condition is required (being used to hiking/walking a bit).
COST: Approximately 170 Kč for train tickets.
As always, if you know about someone interested, feel free to take them with you.
This event is free of charge, but any contribution for organizing and to cover the subscription fees is more than welcome (100+ CZK is recommended, but it's totally up to you how much you think the trip was worth, your financial possibilities etc.).
I can get tickets for everyone from Plzeň if you let me know in advance. You will pay at the end of the trip. Planned arrival back at 19:30 (or possibly a bit earlier).
It's okay if your plans change, but please also change your status accordingly.
I wish everyone a great start into 2026, and I'm looking forward to seeing you!
Jirka 🙏🤗
