Natural Wealth
You can drive through the Czech Republic in one day,
but you can spend all your life walking through it.
The Club of Czech Tourists has been improving for
more than one hundred years the dense network of
marked footpaths and ski-paths, totaling up to 40,000
kilometers and supplemented with detailed maps. The
Czechs love cycling and cross-country skiing in winter
- marked routes will not disappoint you in any season.
They will provide you with erudite information about
natural beauties and historical sights in the landscape
and they will take you to all places including the most
valuable areas - national parks, unique eco-systems
and landscape preserves.
