Camping de Bongerd

If you’re here very much for the outdoor activity, you may like to start at the local golf course (five minutes’ drive away). If that’s not your style, perhaps aim instead for a hike around Macocha Gorge (half an hour), an explore of the cave system at Sloupsko-šošůvské Cave (15 minutes) or an afternoon on the waterslides at Waterpark Koupelky (half an hour). There’s a great list of heritage sites to visit nearby too: both the ruined Holštejn Castle and the rather grander Kunštát Castle are within a half-hour drive, and historic Boskovice (15 minutes) has a Gothic castle, a smarter château and an intriguing Jewish quarter to explore (plus an outdoor pool, a small zoo and the unusual Wild West Town park if the kids have had enough of all the history). A couple of cities should be on the schedule too: it’ll take you just under an hour to drive to either Brno – known as ‘Little Vienna’ for its cathedral, castle and squares – or Olomouc, where you can wander around the Old Town looking out for Baroque fountains.
