Nature Park Draháň-Troja — Attraction in Prague

The natural monument Čimické Údolí was declared in 1968. The Čimický stream flows across the entire territory. Its upper course is copied by a blue marked hiking trail and it is a beautiful place for a walk that will completely clear your head. The area was inhabited during the Stone Age. Over time, it began to be used mainly for agriculture. The geomorphological basis of the valley was formed 2.5 billion to 542 million years ago, but its current character was significantly affected during the Quaternary period. The territory of the natural monument covers an area of less than 11 hectares at an altitude of 240–270 meters and is part of the Drahaň-Troja Nature Park with an area of 578 hectares, which is located on the right bank of the Vltava from Jabloňka to the northern border of Prague. It is an area that has long been inhabited, as evidenced by two important prehistoric strongholds - Castles and Na Farkách. Since the Middle Ages, the area of the nature park has been largely covered with vineyards.

Přírodní památka Čimické Údolí byla vyhlášena roku 1968. Napříč celým územím protéká Čimický potok. Jeho horní tok kopíruje modře značená turistická stezka a jde o krásné místo na procházku, která vám dokonale vyčistí hlavu. Geomorfologický podklad údolí byl utvářen před 2,5 miliardami až 542 milióny let, její dnešní charakter byl však výrazněji ovlivněn až v období čtvrtohor. Území přírodní památky se rozkládá na ploše necelých 11 hektarů v nadmořské výšce 240–270 metrů a je součástí přírodního parku Drahaň-Troja o rozloze 578 hektarů, který se rozkládá na pravém břehu Vltavy od Jabloňky po severní hranici Prahy. Jde o území odpradávna osídlené, což dokládají dvě významná pravěká hradiště - Zámky a Na Farkách. Od středověku byla oblast přírodního parku z velké části...

Dear Mr Bobek,

I visit Praha Zoo yesterday and wanted to share my experience with you regarding this visit.

What's working for you?

Value for money - starting price of 200 Chz was pocket friendly

Multiple counters in all locations for people to eat or drink during their visit.

Excellent concept of free bird section which allows you to connect with Nature.

Loved the seat trolley to reach the mountain top

Cleanliness for guest area

What needs to be improve urgently?

Few animals dont have water available in their section and look completely dihydrated in the afternoon with temperatures going higher than 30 degrees approx

Polar Bears need your attention immediately, they are kept in open area in such extreme hot temperatures with very dirty water. Please fix this else they will die of weakness. One polar bear was sleeping with his tough falling out completely.

Glass not clean to view animals kept inside.. 90% of the glass separating us with animals was full of stains and hand marks which require urgent cleaning.

Zero water coolers for Guest to drink water and lots of animals have empty bowls all afternoon

Lot of section have animals missing

Penguins section has been managed very poorly.

I have visited lots of Zoo's and Aquarium abroad however at Praha Zoo animals are not kept at their best comfort. Could sleep last night till i did not send you this email.

Hoping for a positive change...

Even in my age, I do visit the Prague Zoo eventhough 'nature park' sounds better. Placed in a beautiful area in Prague called after the Châteaux just opposite of the entrance.

The park is spread over a truly large area with many hills, turns and individual open air zones for large animals. Others are built-in buildings accommodating nocturnal creatures.

All in all a very important place to see and experience & not only kids will be delighted. Its not a place with a couple of sad creatures are shown in a cage but rather an organisation that is very heavily invested in education + conservation. They're especially proud amongst many projects being one of the oldest organisations breeding the Mongolian Przewalski horses that were near extinction crowned by a successful ambition releasing already 31 horses in the Mongolian steps with an ever growing population.

Possible to have a board ride from the city centre to the vicinity of the zoo with a pleasant walk through a green park just across the river with the zoo and Troja Chateau.

Easily by Metro+ bus ride and doesn't take too long either.

Otherwise many opportunities for snacks, drinks and proper food Complementary services and family rates is a nice...
