Introduction
We are excited to introduce a brand new hiking experience in central Europe. Two of our favorite cities in Europe, Prague and Krakow, have often been included in previous WAI Central European Adventures. Through a new partnership with a travel planner in the Czech Republic, we are now able to offer a walking tour off the beaten path that connects these two delightful Central European capitals. Highlights include:
- Visits to 7 UNESCO World Heritage Sites
- 8 nature hikes including trails in Bohemian Paradise and the Giant Mountains (Czech Republic), and Orava and the High Tatra Mountains (Slovakia)
- Outstanding example of architecture ~ Baroque, Gothic, Renaissance, Art Nouveau, and folk
- Focus on rural and nature walking and interactions with locals
- Optional pre-tour in Prague and Extension in Krakow
