What is the best way at a reasonable price, to travel from Vienna to Cesky Klumlov, then to Karlovy Vary then to Prague;we would like to spend 2 or 3 nights at each place.
If there couple of you the best option is to purchase Einfach-Raus-Ticket (28 euro for a group up to 5) and use till Gmund NO, after just buy cheap domestic Czech ticket till C.Krymlov (105 CZK) etc.
There are Euregio tickets from Wien to Ceske Budejovice available (r/t 22 euro), from there it will be pretty cheap to get to Cesky Krumlov.
For Czech train travel europetrainsguide.com might help
Thank alot,but is it train or bus?
Train ;)
Beautiful frescoes and sgraffito cover many of the pastel buildings both in town and within the castle complex. Just wandering through the streets, seemingly untouched by time, soaking up the charming scenery, is my favorite memory from here, along with our lunch at Satlava. Cesky Krumlov has changed so little over the centuries that it's been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
These bridges are simply a very clever way of beeing able to walk directely from the castle into the gardens.
That way the different levels of the rock did not matter at all for the old knights and castle-owners...
...while visitors have to walk up steep paths and several stairs in order to get to the Baroque Gardens !
Taking bus from Cesky Krunlov to Cesky Bodejovice then train to Linz and train again to Salzburg.
Bus : Cesky Krumlov - Cesky Bodejovice 28 CZK ( not include 4 CZK for 1 luggage )
Train : Cesky Bodejovice - Salzburg 908 CZK ( 2nd class )
You can check schedule at tourist information
Cesky Krumlov boasts the second biggest castle in the country, after Prazky Hrad in Prague. Forty buildings make up the bulky, brooding castle complex, which sprawls over two rocky hills at the edge of town. It dates back to the 1200's, with numerous parts added to it over the centuries. The aristocratic Rozmberk, Schwarzenberg, and Habsburg families ruled from here.
I was very disappointed to learn that the castle was closed during the off-season, including October, when we were there. In the summer you can take tours of it. We were able to wander around the grounds, though, including seeing the old moat, which for centuries has housed a few bears.
Look at that evil-looking dark cloud - I still can't believe it didn't rain on us when we were there!
These are the photos taken by me around Cesky Krumlov !
Being tipped as one of the most beautiful medieval town in Europe ! Added to UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE LIST in 1992.
The chateau here is the 2nd largest in Czech Republic after Prague's.
Wander around the cobble-stoned streets around Cesky Krumlov !
Location :
The mighty complex of the castle is erected on the rock promontory which has been sculpted by the Vltava river from the southern side and by Pole?nice stream from the northern side. The castle towers proudly above the refined Renaissance and Baroque burgher architecture of the town below. The town, together with the magnificent Church of St.Vitus and the complex of the castle, creates an unique feature of the whole region. Like a precious pearl, the town of Cesky Krumlov is situated in the valley surrounded with the massif of Blansko Forest to the north and the undulating foothills of ?umava to the south and west.
