Saturday running and coffee
Saturday running and coffee
NOTE THE TIME CHANGE TO 9AM Hi All, Come and join us for social running and a coffee! We meet at the main gate of Vystaviste - tram stop Vystaviste Holesovice. We will run in Stromovka. Usually we run around 50mins and it is up to everyone how many kilometres. We welcome all levels of runner. We can all run together or, if there is more of us, we can split into groups and at the end of the run we all meet close to the starting point to go for a coffee to a nice local coffee place (where they also sell cakes and great chocolate). If the weather is great, we can also just sit in one of the outside coffee placces in Stromovka and enjoy the sun. This is where we meet: http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/7/7/3/1/600_447930513.jpeg

June coffee in Vinohrady
June coffee in Vinohrady
!CANCELLED! Hi everyone, due to the extreme heat forecast for Saturday (37°C), I’m postponing our meetup. With the 3pm start time, we’d be traveling right in the hottest part of the day, and I imagine most of you would rather be by the water than in transit or sitting in a café. I will plan for another date when it will be hopefully cooler. This time, we will meet at Spižírna 1902 in Vinohrady, with a small group (4 - 8) of foreigners living in Prague and Czechs who have lived abroad and miss an international environment. If you sign up and can’t make it, please update your RSVP. We are looking forward to meeting you and having coffee together. Please join if you are 35+ and comfortable communicating in English.

2ND OFF TRAIL OPEN 2026
2ND OFF TRAIL OPEN 2026 I’m inviting you for an off-road ride on gravel roads and forest trails near Prague. Bought an adventure bike and not sure what to do with it next? Then you’re in the right place. As part of Off Trail Tours, I’m organizing 4 open rides for the public to share my passion for off-road riding. ... 🟢 **MORE ABOUT OFF TRAIL TOURS** [https://offtrailtours.eu/](https://offtrailtours.eu/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExWUVMOE9sQXR4UDZVZkVJOHNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR6FkQAVs5krzbaHpG-zZsJuy-0wntoiyhSCFQp7dv7sPtXYYC75TF-3O6uzmQ_aem_6f8hSnqTD79o2Qr91lVeZg) ... 🏍️ **MOTORCYCLE RENTAL** It is now also possible to rent a motorcycle. Ideal if you want to try whether this kind of riding is for you. A valid motorcycle driving licence is required. ... 🧭 **ROUTE** We will ride from Štěchovice to Hříměždice. Expect around 80 km, mostly off-road, with a few small river crossings, some climbs, technical sections, and other fun parts.

Please arrive on time. We depart at 10:00. ... 🔥 **THE CHERRY ON TOP** First, there’s an option for lunch at a local pub if you’re hungry (not included in the price) — and trust me, you will be. If the weather allows, there’s also the option to jump into the water from up to 10 meters at a nearby quarry — perfect in summer. It all depends on the group agreement. We can also skip lunch and swimming and ride the whole day. ... 🫰 **ITINERARY** 09:30 – 10:00 / Meeting 10:00 – 13:00 / 1ST riding section 13:00 – 14:00 / Break (lunch / snack) 14:00 – 15:00 / Swimming (by agreement) 15:00 – 18:00 / 2ND riding section ... 💰 **ENTRY FEE** 500 CZK The price includes a full-day guided ride, and as a bonus you’ll receive GPX track files for your future rides. ... ✌️ **CAPACITY** 5 riders Please register in advance. ... **🗓️ UPCOMING RIDES** 1st ride / 19. 4. 2026 2nd ride / 28. 6. 2026 3rd ride / 9. 8. 2026 4th ride / 20. 9. 2026

Thank you understanding & cooperation! \*\*\*\*\* Ahoj Discoverers! I’d like to invite you to another relaxing canoeing trip. This time on Sázava, the most popular Czech river. We will run a very scenic river section from Ledečko to the Sázava town, which is known for a monastery and the Kavalier glass-factory. *The trip is suitable for people who haven't canoed before as long as they can swim. You should also be somewhat physically coordinated and have patience to learn a new motor skill!* I'm NOT a certified instructor but I have taught countless people the basics of canoeing. DIFFICULTY: Easy to Medium (depending on the water level on the day) About 12 km / 8 miles. There are 3 weirs\* and some gentle rapids. \* A weir ('jez' in Czech) is a little dam regulating the flow of the river. LOGISTICS We will meet already at **7:45 AM (!)** in front of the main ticket office at the Prague Main Railway Station. We’ll be aiming to be back in Prague by 19:00. However, we will be as fast as the slowest member of our group and an unexpected delay is possible. This is a full-day event. WHAT TO TAKE WITH YOU • Shoes to wear in water (sandals, or you can buy special shoes for walking in water) • Wear clothes which dry fast (NOT jeans) • Sunscreen • Towel and maybe some spare clothes (in case your canoe capsizes) • Swimwear • Bottle of water and a small snack. • Put all your staff to a small compact bag – we will put all our belongings into water-proof barrels and they are not very large. You need to be prepared for a possibility of the boat flipping (capsizing). Keep your phone in a waterproof case and have glasses on a string while on the river! \*\*\*\*\* PRICE: 950 CZK (Includes train fare both ways, equipment rental and myself as your guide and organizer) Food&drink is not included. To be confirmed on the trip, you have to (!) book your place on Discovering Prague & CZ website here: [https://www.discoveringprague.cz/event/lets-canoe-on-sazava-june-28-2026/](https://www.discoveringprague.cz/event/lets-canoe-on-sazava-june-28-2026/) \*\*\*\*\* You can also pay with benefit cards or vouchers!

Trails & Ales! Scioto Grove Metro Park / Grove City Brewing
Trails & Ales! Scioto Grove Metro Park / Grove City Brewing
The only Metro Park with a fire tower! **History** [Scioto Grove Metro Park](https://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/scioto-grove/) officially became the 19th park in the Columbus and Franklin County Metro Parks system when it opened to the public on May 6, 2016. Located along a scenic bend of the Scioto River in Grove City, just south of Columbus, the 620-acre park was designed to blend preservation with modern recreation. Long before it became a park, this river corridor served as a vital footpath and trade route for Indigenous communities. Decades later, the mature forests and dramatic river bluffs caught the eye of conservationists looking to expand regional green spaces. The grand opening was a major milestone, drawing over 19,000 visitors in its very first weekend. The creation of the park was made possible through a sequence of land acquisitions and strong community partnerships. In October 2009, Franklin County voters approved a critical property tax levy that funded the initial purchase of 66 acres. Shortly after, the City of Grove City generously donated nearly 193 acres of land, previously known as Talbot Park, to anchor the project. Additional parcels were acquired using state grants from the Clean Ohio Conservation Fund, successfully closing the gap between properties by December 2012. This collaborative funding model ensured that pristine wilderness areas remained completely protected from commercial development. From its inception, the park aimed to introduce innovative amenities to the regional park system, most notably the concept of "urban backpacking". Through a key partnership with the outdoor gear retailer REI Co-op, the park established the scenic REI River Trail. This trail features five rustic, reservation-only campsites along the river, specifically designed to give newcomers a safe place to practice backpacking close to home. Additionally, planners prioritized making the park fully pet-friendly, allowing leashed dogs across all trails and areas. This open-pet policy uniquely distinguished Scioto Grove from many other traditional Columbus Metro Parks. As the park grew in popularity, community members established special commemorative landmarks to honor local lives. In June 2019, a dedicated memorial garden was unveiled near the park entrance in memory of Reagan Tokes, an Ohio State University student. The serene space features a central pond bordered by bright blue flowers, representing her favorite color. A primary buckeye tree stands alongside a dedicated plaque, surrounded by four additional buckeye trees to represent her immediate family members. This addition transformed a portion of the park into a meaningful place for community reflection, healing, and peace. The historical depth of the park took a significant leap forward with the relocation of a massive piece of Ohio history. In August 2023, Metro Parks officially unveiled the Keystone Forest Lookout Tower, which had been carefully moved from Jackson County, Ohio. Originally constructed in 1942 by the Aermotor Windmill Company, the 82-foot-tall metal structure spent decades guarding southern Ohio’s vast forests from devastating wildfires. Workers painstakingly disassembled, re-galvanized, and reassembled the historic landmark at Scioto Grove. Today, visitors can climb its 111 steep steps to experience a panoramic view stretching all the way to the downtown Columbus skyline. **Map of the Park** Here is a [map of Scioto Grove](https://www.metroparks.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/SGR-map_1980px_2026.jpg). **Summary** We will hike around 5 miles on the Overlook, REI River, Mingo, and Arrowhead Trails. While the configuration of the trails can lead us to occasionally taking longer hikes than at other parks, Scioto Grove is not generally a very strenuous place to hike. If you use hiking poles and inadvertently forget them, this is not a park where you're likely to end up caring that much. That said, Scioto Grove is one of the better Metro Parks for hiking as well as other things. They are the only Metro Park with five camping areas where you can literally pitch a tent and sleep for the night. You must contact the park and reserve these in advance; they are however free. **Where We'll Meet** We'll meet at the Arrowhead Picnic Area, near the restrooms and playground. Arrowhead is the main picnic and parking area of the park, and it also has the only water fountain at Scioto Grove. **After the Hike** Afterward, we will head over to [Grove City Brewing](https://www.grovecitybrewery.com/) for [drinks and food](https://www.grovecitybrewery.com/menu). They have pretty good hamburgers. I was mortified to discover that I've never had their [Grove City Hooyah](https://www.beermenus.com/beers/486553-grove-city-hooyah) before, but I will correct that during this event. The actual address of the brewery is [3946 Broadway, Grove City, OH 43123](https://www.google.com/maps/place/3946+Broadway,+Grove+City,+OH+43123/@39.8836912,-83.0919635,16z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x88389b3a28d0f4ad:0x3d85c41f608406c6!8m2!3d39.8836912!4d-83.0919635!16s%2Fg%2F11g8dh6h1_?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTAwOS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D). We should be there by 5 if you can't make the hike and just want to join us for drinks.
