Discover Frenstat Pod Radhostem

Frenštát pod Radhoštěm offers a variety of travel experiences within a compact thematic area: water activities, hiking trails, sports history and culture can be combined into a varied stay. For families, the aquapark is an activity in its own right, while the trails on the Horečky, the observation tower on Velký Javorník and the museums provide further highlights.

Water and Slides at the Aquapark

The Frenštát Aquapark offers a multipurpose pool and a swimming pool, heated water, refreshments, seating and a volleyball court. The aquapark also includes a children's pool. Two notable measurements define the slide selection: one water slide is 60 metres long and 5.8 metres high; a two-lane water slide has a slide length of 13.1 metres. If you are travelling with children, this provides a clearly defined water-focused activity for planning your day.

Horečky: Ski-Jumping History and Nature Experience

The ski-jumping complex on the Horečky was built in the 1960s. In 1968, the first hill with K = 43 m was built, followed in 1969 by two more hills with K = 72 m and K = 90 m. Since 1973, ski-jumping competitions of the GRAND PRIX have been held there regularly. Jiří Raška is particularly associated with the complex on the Horečky and the ski-jumping hills in Frenštát pod Radhoštěm.

Beskydské nebe Educational Trail

The Beskydské nebe educational trail is located on the Horečky at the boundary between Frenštát pod Radhoštěm and Trojanovice. It has eight stations and includes an 85-metre-long accessible treetop walkway that is open seasonally. The outing is designated as a hiking and cycling trip and covers 3.4 km from the car park near the ski-jumping hill and back to the same car park. The fixed route length gives you a concrete reference point when choosing between a museum visit, a hike or a cycling tour.

Hiking and Viewpoints

The green-marked hiking trail to the observation tower on Velký Javorník begins at the Frenštát pod Radhoštěm railway station and leads directly there. Within the town, the town hall tower is usually opened to the public during the tourism season. It serves as an observation tower offering views of the Beskydy panorama.

Church and Museum

The Church of St. Martin in Frenštát pod Radhoštěm is registered as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic and is regularly used for services, concerts and other events. The single-nave building, designed in the Baroque style, has a projecting square tower, an onion dome and Rococo furnishings. The Frenštát pod Radhoštěm Museum has nine exhibitions on the individual floors, as well as three exhibition halls on the ground floor for temporary exhibitions, lectures and audiovisual programmes. Visits are possible without a guide; texts in foreign languages are also available.
