Discover the Historic Charm of Vyšehrad

Getting There

• Public Transport - Metro

  If you are near the city center, head to the nearest Metro station and take Line C (the red line) towards Háje. Get off at the Vyšehrad station, which is about a 5-minute ride. Once you exit the station, follow the signs to the Vyšehrad Fortress. It’s a short walk uphill to the main entrance.

• Public Transport - Tram

  From any location in Prague, find the nearest tram stop and take Tram 17 or Tram 18. Get off at the Vyšehrad stop. After exiting the tram, head north towards the fortress area. The entrance is just a short walk away, and you will see the impressive walls and statues as you approach.

• Walking

  For those who prefer to walk, start from the city center, ideally from Wenceslas Square. Head southeast towards the Vltava River and cross the bridge (Palackého most is a good option). Once across, follow the riverside path south until you reach the Vyšehrad area. The walk takes about 30 minutes and offers beautiful views of the river and city.

• Bike Rental

  If you enjoy cycling, consider renting a bike. Many rental shops are available in the city center. Head towards the river and follow the bike paths along the Vltava River heading south. You will eventually reach Vyšehrad. The ride takes approximately 15-20 minutes and allows you to enjoy the scenic views along the river.
