      Beautiful park, well known for their bbq grills and beautiful views of the city. Here you can relax and enjoy some grilled meat and play with your dog. This is more of a chill park than others but it has its own magic as well.

  • Thomayerovy sady

      Another hidden gem is this smaller park! Here you get some nice views that not many people know about! It's more private but still very beautiful. There's a playground is on a hill so it makes it popular for runners as well.

  • Rieger Gardens

      This park got super popular because of the well-known beer garden and for the astonishing views during sunset time in one of the hills. This place can be quite busy around sunset time but so alive and to be honest the view you get from here is truly amazing since you can see the Prague castle from here and all the lights in the city at night.

  • Havlíčkovy sady, Czech Republic

      This one is more of a hidden gem! Here you can find a vineyard and a really cozy cafe with a great view. If you looking for more privacy I would recommend this place. There are a beautiful fountain and a little castle style house. If you wanna impress definitely come to this place.

  • Střelecký ostrov

      This one has to one of my favorites, is actually an island in the middle of the city. From here you get a nice view of the Charles Bridge and you can even rent a pedal boat which is super fun. During summer there are many wine and food festivals and it's the official spot for the Pride! The picnics here are nice if you come at sunset time to the reflections in the river.

  • Petřín Gardens, Czech Republic

      This is well known as the lover's park since in Loveday around which is May 1, all the pink blossoming trees are around and the tradition says that you need to kiss under one of those trees for good luck. Since here is the most concentration of these trees many people gather around here. The place is beautiful and you get a really good view of Prague as well. There's even a tower replica of the Eiffel tower which makes everything more romantic.

  • Divoká Šárka

      Divoka Sarka, which translates to Wild Sarka is one of Prague's natural reserves. I would recommend this spot to more hiking lovers. Here you can find beautiful trails to walk around and you get some pretty views as well. If you're feeling more adventurous you can even swim in the lake here.

  • Letna Park, Czech Republic

      Letna Park is more hipster I would say just because of the fact that in summer almost every night of the weekend there's a DJ playing some kind of music. Apart from that, there's a beer garden and you get one of the top views in Prague! Perfect for a romantic picnic.

  • Stromovka, Czech Republic

      I would say Stromovoka is one of the biggest parks in Prague and one of the most beautiful. Here you can ride a bike around, make BBQs, go for strolls and for sure make a great picnic. Since the park is just huge Im sure you'll find a perfect spot for yourself.
