Přední Labská: Město Špindlerův Mlýn - Svatý Petr, Pláně
Tucked into the forested slopes of the eastern Krkonoše Mountains, Pláň is a place whose character is shaped by mountain terrain and a network of ski runs. It stands above the Svatý Petr quarter of Špindlerův Mlýn, where the Elbe valley cuts between the ridges of Czechia's highest range. Chairlifts and cleared corridors link Pláň to the wider Špindlerův Mlýn ski area, one of the country's principal mountain resorts. Spruce forest and open mountain meadows surround the developed slopes, placing recreation within the landscape of Krkonoše National Park, established in 1963. Pláň gives the resort a broad upland setting while remaining tied to the settlement in the valley below.

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.

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.
