What to bring

Carry a valid ID card, as it may be required to confirm your booking or eligibility for discounted tickets.

Pack a light sweater or jacket, because the higher elevation and castle interiors can feel noticeably cooler than the village below.
-
Carry a compact umbrella or raincoat, as weather conditions can change suddenly and parts of the walk are uncovered.

Pets are not allowed inside the castle interiors, except for certified service animals.
-
Smoking is prohibited inside the castle grounds and in enclosed areas to protect the historical site.
Accessibility
- This tour is not accessible to wheelchair users, for the walk to Karlštejn Castle involves a 2-kilometer uphill climb from the parking area, and the interiors include staircases and uneven medieval floors.
