Karlstejn: Golf Resort Karlštejn
Tucked into the rolling limestone country of the Bohemian Karst, Golf Resort Karlštejn is a place whose character is shaped by fairways set among mature trees, ponds and low wooded hills. The 18-hole course occupies open Central Bohemian terrain near the village of Běleč, where maintained greens and sand bunkers sit within a largely rural setting. It is closely associated with Karlštejn, the historic settlement on the Berounka River. Above that river valley stands Karlštejn Castle, founded in 1348 by Charles IV to safeguard the Czech crown jewels and imperial relics. The resort provides a quieter counterpoint to one of Czechia’s best-known medieval monuments.

Karlštejn occupies a narrow stretch of the Berounka River valley in the Central Bohemian Region. Above the settlement rises Karlštejn Castle, founded in 1348 by Charles IV to safeguard royal and imperial treasures. Its stepped arrangement of towers and palaces reflects the castle’s role as a fortified royal residence, while the Chapel of the Holy Cross in the Great Tower ranks among its most important interiors. The surrounding Český kras Protected Landscape Area is shaped by limestone hills, forests and caves, placing the village within one of the country’s best-known karst regions.

The terrain of the Central Bohemian Region ranges from fertile Elbe lowlands in the north to wooded uplands in the south, creating a varied setting of rivers, farmland and old towns. The Vltava crosses the region before joining the Elbe at Mělník, while the countryside around Prague has long supplied and connected the capital. Karlštejn Castle, founded by Charles IV in 1348, recalls the medieval importance of this area; Kutná Hora preserves the legacy of silver mining that once ranked among the kingdom’s key sources of wealth. Roads, railways and river valleys still make Central Bohemia the country’s geographic core. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of central Czechia connects regionally.

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.
