The area around the Bohemian Forest (in Czech „Pošumaví“) is an area of beauty, which offers distinctive characters, picturesque scenery, and architecture (e.g. Silesian baroque), village chappels, crucifiction columns, crosses, and natural sights. Volyně, which is often referred to as the „gateway“ to the Bohemian Forest is the ideal base for exploring towns, villages, forests and other interesting sights.
