Bathing in Prague: Divoká Šárka (Portal of Prague)

The Divoká Šárka open-air swimming pool is a place out of common: you can only get there after a short walk in a narrow valley between the rocks of a natural reserve and your reward is really cold water. Despite of that the place is sought by the whole Prague.

You will get there if you get off Evropská Road from McDonald´s and follow red touristic signs. The walk takes ten to fifteen minutes. The area consists of two big open-air swimming pools, a paddling pool, a lot of space for sunbathing (on the slope as well as near the children’s corner), refreshment and table tennis.
