About location

Among the places of the South Bohemian Region, Stožec stands out for its setting in the wooded Šumava foothills beside the Teplá Vltava. The municipality lies within Šumava National Park, close to the German border, where extensive spruce forest and wet valley ground shape the settlement’s surroundings. Stožec is a practical base for exploring the upper Vltava valley on foot, by bicycle and by rail; its station stands on the line between České Budějovice and Černý Kříž. Above the village, the Stožecká chapel is a long-established pilgrimage site reached by a forest path. A modest local ski area adds a small-scale recreational dimension to this quiet borderland community.
