Cerna v Posumavi
Among the places of the South Bohemian Region, Černá v Pošumaví stands out for its long shore on the Lipno Reservoir, Czechia’s largest body of water by surface area. The municipality lies in the foothills of the Šumava Mountains, where wooded ridges meet the broad waterway created by the Lipno I dam on the Vltava. The reservoir was filled in 1959 and reshaped a former river valley into a major centre for sailing, paddling and other waterside recreation. Černá v Pošumaví retains a low-rise character, with open lakeside grounds and small settlements dispersed between forest and water. Its position on Lipno makes it a practical base for exploring the southern Bohemian lakeshore and the nearby Šumava landscape.

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.
