View from the castle tower
The highest viewpoint in the town provides a 360 degree view of the town and the surrounding countryside.
The castle tower
The brightly painted baroque castle tower is the most visible structure of Cesky Krumlov's skyline and accounts in no small part for town's surpassing loveliness. You can climb the wooden staircase to the top of the tower for a panoramic view of the splendid rooftops and the Vltava river below.
View from Vysehrad
Initially I wished I had stayed in the more popular center part of town instead of the more remote Vysehrad neighborhood. However as this scene spread out below me while I was walking to town (a 10-minute downhill hike), I stopped doubting.
Cesky Krumlov alley
If you're in love with narrow, winding cobblestoned alleys, you'll find them here too.
Castle gate
The medieval castle gate glowing in the golden light of sunset.
View from the castle
The castle commands a strategic vantage over the river valley below. Come up here for a spectacular view of the red rooftops and you'll instantly fall in love with Cesky Krumlov.
Main Square
Cesky Krumlov is tiny. The Main Square is the center of activity. You can probably explore the entire central area in about 15 minutes.
