Participants will enjoy the serene castle park, ideal for quiet walks and relaxation.
Třešť is located in the scenic Vysočina region, celebrated for its rolling hills, forests, and cultural landmarks. A highlight of the area is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Telč, just 24 minutes away by train with regular hourly service. Telč, known for its Renaissance architecture and charming town square, offers a unique excursion opportunity for participants.
