Skiing in the Czech Republic
A few months ago we talked about skiing in the Krkonose Mountains in the Czech Republic. But there are plenty of other great spots for snow sports around:
- Jizerské Mountains: this range will be home of the 2009 World Skiing Championships, and also has lots of good cross-country runs
- Orlické Mountains: cross-country trails and downhill slopes galore; and home to a 23-27 January dog-sled race
- Jeseníky Mountains: highest ski-lifts and long downhill skiing runs
- Beskydy Mountains: best for cross-country skiing
- Šumava Mountains: fewer large resorts make these quieter for a short ski trip
- Krušné Mountains: home to spa-towns as well as ski slopes
