Czech vacations: Top 5 best ski resorts in the country

Krkonoše Mountains

The best conditions for alpine skiing in the Czech Republic can be found in the Krkonoše Mountains, reminiscent of the Ukrainian Carpathians. Therefore, this is the most popular destination for winter vacations in the Czech Republic.

Here are excellent conditions for family vacations and for both beginners and professionals. Pistes are mostly "green", although there are also "blue" and even more difficult ones. There is a lot of snowfall, because the Krkonoše are the first mountains to get in the way of Atlantic cyclones that bring moisture. A two-meter layer of snow in spring, from which road signs barely stick out, is not uncommon.

The resort offers a lot of entertainment besides skiing. For example, you can swim in the swimming pool, go to one of fifty restaurants, play tennis, ride on dog sleds, visit museums.
