Krivoklat Castle, Czech Republic


Krivoklat Castle

We took a local train through the pretty Berounca Valley to Krivoklat Castle, 40 miles west of Prague. The scenery on the way was quite nice as we travelled in the valley through holiday cottages and campsites where everyone was swimming in the river.
We enjoyed this train ride as it was not as busy and we were the only English tourists. We took a guided tour with a Czech guide (no english) which actually was quite fun considering.
After the tour, I walked up into the hills to try to find a lookout over the castle. The result was this photo, but only since I came across a cabin with a guy cutting some fruit with a huge knife and I decided to turn back before I could get a better view!!! *Stub
