Hike in Sumava

The hike took participants into the heart of the Šumava National Park. They enjoyed a wonderful day together, filled with stories, laughter, and the stunning views of the early autumn scenery. The whole trip carried a friendly and supportive atmosphere, with everyone looking out for one another.

The activity began with a preparatory meeting, where participants learned how to pack properly, went through the essential safety rules, and got to know the route they would follow. With everything prepared, it was time to set out. The group met in the picturesque and well known mountain village of Kvilda, the starting point of their adventure. From there, the hike led them first to the source of the Vltava River. After exploring this unique spot, the path continued to Bučina – once the highest located settlement in Czechia. Surrounded by mountain views, the group paused for a short break, enjoying their snacks and taking the chance to rest before moving on. Refreshed and energized, they continued along the scenic trail, following the loop that eventually guided them back to Kvilda.

Step by step, the hike unfolded as a mix of shared conversations, natural beauty, and a supportive group spirit. At the end of the day, the adventure gently came to a close. Back in Kvilda, participants exchanged goodbyes and set out on their way home, carrying with them not only tired legs but also memories of a well spent day in the Šumava landscape.
