Manzara muhteşem

Voor oude trappen op weg naar een nog oudere burg zijn ze verrassend comfortabel. Dus ook als je niet in topconditie bent, kun je makkelijk de top bereiken.

They’re stairs. Very old, very steep, very famous. These are the legendary Old Castle Stairs leading up to Prague Castle — and yeah, they do their job. No faults, no complaints… but let’s be real, I can’t give stairs a 5/5. The views as you climb are absolutely worth it. You get some stunning panoramas of Prague as your legs cry out for mercy. It’s a proper workout, so maybe skip leg day beforehand. Go early if you want it peaceful — it fills up fast with other tourists also questioning their life choices halfway up. ⭐ 4/5 — historic, iconic, mildly punishing. A great set of stairs, but still… stairs.
