Cerny Dul: SkiResort Černý Důl
Built around iron-ore mining, Černý Důl grew into a mountain settlement and ski-resort centre in the Krkonoše Mountains. Its name, meaning “Black Mine”, preserves that industrial past; mining shaped the community long before winter sports became central to its identity. SkiResort Černý Důl forms part of the wider SkiResort ČERNÁ HORA – PEC, bringing together several mountain centres on the Czech side of the range. Forested slopes and clearings around the village are served by lifts and runs, while the uplands of Černá hora rise nearby. The Krkonoše are Czechia’s highest mountain range, giving Černý Důl a distinctly upland character.

Černý Důl lies in the valley of the Čistá stream in the Krkonoše Mountains, enclosed by wooded slopes beneath the higher mountain ridges. The slopes of Černá hora rise above this small settlement, which is part of one of Czechia’s principal mountain regions. Mining shaped the community from the 16th century and gave it its name; the Church of St Michael the Archangel remains a prominent feature in the centre. Černý Důl is also a practical base for winter sports, hiking and cycling across the Krkonoše area.

The Krkonoše Mountains and the upper Elbe define much of Královéhradecký kraj - mountain resorts and winter sports have long supported its tourism economy. On the Polish border, Sněžka reaches 1,603 metres, making it Czechia’s highest mountain, and stands within Krkonoše National Park. The Elbe rises in these mountains before flowing through the region’s lower country. Hradec Králové, the regional capital, combines a historic core with notable early-20th-century architecture linked to Josef Gočár and Jan Kotěra. Farther east, the sandstone formations of the Adršpach–Teplice Rocks introduce a sharply different terrain.
