Skatepark Štvanice Prague

Skaters' paradise

Janina from Prague

About me I'm an old punk, mother of five kids and a workaholic (for obvious reasons), trying to get some sleep, sometimes. I come from a family of car racers, translators and historians. I look at the world and happily take pictures of it. Why I love Prague I love old walls and Prague is full of them. I feel at home in both my cities (I'm from Brno, now living in Prague), ...
""Skatepark Štvanice" is on the island of the same name in Prague's river. It's open for everybody the whole year. Get a beer, watch the stunts, relax..."

Prague may be a city without a sea but we have a river and there are many islands here. One of them is called Štvanice and there's a pumptrack and a water-power station (at the uglier end) and a really nice skatepark (at the nicer one).

Go by tram (no. 14) to a tram stop called Štvanice and then head to the greener part of the island. After about 500m, you are in a skaters' and bikers' paradise. There is an annual Mystic Skate Cup held in this skatepark in Summer but if you want to chill anytime, it's open for everybody for the whole year. You can just sit there with a beer or two, watch the stunts of the skate masters or take a ride yourself.

And if you go even further from the tram stop, you can relax in the grass at the end of the Štvanice island and watch the Vltava river and ducks and boats and ferries... and when you're relaxed enough, you can leave the island by the ferry you've just watched either to Karlín or to Holešovice.

Prague Spotter Janina

About me I'm an old punk, mother of five kids and a workaholic (for obvious reasons), trying to get some sleep, sometimes. I come from a family of car racers, translators and historians. I look at the world and happily take pictures of it. Why I love Prague I love old walls and Prague is full of them. I feel at home in both my cities (I'm from Brno, now living in Prague), and I think my cities like me too. There's always some place to go to (not speaking about pubs etc), something new to see or something seen to explore again. Where else can you find me on...

Pet Cemetery

Dogs, cats and rabbits rest here

The Bohnice "Pet Cemetery" in Prague is a small jungle. It's touching and interesting to see how deeply in love some pet owners were with their companions.
