The Iconic Charles Bridge: A Timeless Connection

Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car, start by heading towards the D10 motorway from your location in Český ráj. Follow the signs for Prague (Praha) and merge onto the D10. Continue on D10 until you reach the exit for the E65 towards Prague. Once in Prague, follow signs for the city center (Centrum). You will eventually take a left onto the Újezd street and follow it until you reach the Vltava River. From there, turn right onto the riverfront and follow it until you see signs for Karlův most (Charles Bridge). Parking in the city is limited, so look for parking garages nearby or park on the outskirts and walk to the bridge.

• Public Transportation

  For those using public transportation, you can take a train or bus from Český ráj to Prague. First, check the schedule for either a train or bus that heads to Prague's main train station (Hlavní nádraží). Once you arrive at the station, you can take tram number 22 from the station to the 'Malostranská' stop. From there, it’s a short walk towards the river. Follow the signs to Karlův most (Charles Bridge), which will be straight ahead. Keep in mind that a train ticket to Prague costs approximately 100-200 CZK, depending on the time of travel.

• Taxi/Ride-Sharing

  If you prefer a more direct route, consider using a taxi or ride-sharing service like Uber. Simply input 'Karlův most, 110 00 Praha 1' as your destination. The cost will vary depending on your starting location but expect to pay around 800-1200 CZK for a ride from the outskirts of Český ráj to the bridge. This option is convenient, especially if you're traveling with luggage or in a group.
