General presentation
Český Krumlov et Bohême du Sud
Town classified in a loop of the Vltava, supplemented by castles, ponds, villages and countryside of South Bohemia.
The discovery of Český Krumlov and South Bohemia revolves around Český Krumlov, Hluboká Castle and Třebo. The stay thus alternates between urban life, heritage, riverscapes and the countryside, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 4 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: strong influx to Český Krumlov and paved streets. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
World Heritage
Village historique d’Holašovice
Holašovice preserves a village square lined with farms with popular baroque décor, with adorned gables, gates and clear coatings. The whole is struck by its rural cohesion: the houses remain aligned around the large central space, reminiscent of an agricultural Bohemia where beauty also came from the buildings of everyday life.
Town or village
Český Krumlov
Český Krumlov wraps in a loop of the Vltava, with medieval alleyways, painted facades and castle overlooking the red roofs. The city is very visited, but the views from the bridges and gardens of the castle show why its site remains so notable.
Castle
Château de Hluboká
The castle of Hluboká has a neo-Gothic white silhouette, with towers, niches, gardens and decorated interiors. Its almost English appearance contrasts with the villages of South Bohemia, making it a visually strong stage near České Budějovice.
Town or village
Třeboň
Třeboň is a city of ponds, canals and Renaissance houses, in the heart of a flat landscape shaped by fish farming. There is a slower South Bohemia, between walks on the dikes, castle, local breweries and reflections of water around the ramparts.
