Hojsova Stráž: Apartmany Sumava
Among the settlements of the Plzeň Region, Hojsova Stráž stands out for its wooded position in the Šumava Mountains near Czechia’s border with Germany. This small community lies within the broader Bohemian Forest, an upland landscape that continues across the border. Scattered homes, gardens, and spruce and broadleaf trees give the settlement a distinctly rural character rather than that of an urban resort. Apartmány Šumava is part of the local accommodation offer and provides a base for exploring the forest roads and rolling terrain of western Šumava. The area’s borderland character and its long association with forestry have helped shape the cultural landscape of this part of Bohemia.

The river valleys of western Bohemia define much of Plzeň Region, supporting agriculture, linking historic towns and carrying the Mže, Radbuza, Úhlava and Úslava toward Plzeň. In the city, the Mže and Radbuza form the Berounka, while wooded highlands extend west toward the Bohemian Forest and south toward Šumava. Plzeň is the regional centre and the home of Pilsner Urquell: the beer was first brewed here in 1842 and gave its name to the pilsner style. Its centre is marked by the Gothic Cathedral of St Bartholomew and the Great Synagogue. Beyond the city, smaller towns, castles and rural roads give the region a distinct western-Bohemian character.

The terrain of Czechia ranges from fertile lowlands in southern Moravia to mountain ridges along the northern frontier, giving this Central European country a distinctly varied geography. The Vltava runs through Prague before joining the Elbe, while the Krkonoše form part of the border with Poland and include Sněžka, Czechia’s highest mountain. Prague’s historic centre, with Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, reflects the city’s long role as a political and cultural centre. Beyond the capital, Bohemia is known for spa towns and brewing, and Moravia for wine-growing traditions.
