Kutna Hora and Bone Chapel Private Day Trip from Prague
If you are looking for more fun and adrenalin, we can also visit the bobsleigh track at the Klimeška sports ground in Kutná Hora. With its length of 1565 meters, the Kutná Hora Bobsleigh Track built in 2006 is the longest bobsleigh track in the Czech Republic and the second longest in Europe. It spreads uniquely across three slopes with a height difference of 42 meters. The track is comprised of two interconnected routes. The first part of the track is rather recreational with a lower height difference and less sharp turns. This route measures 750 m. The second part of the track is 575 m long and thanks to a higher height difference and sharper turns presents a more adrenaline-filled attraction. Parents can ride with their children on a bobsled with two seats. You can adjust your speed with a brake lever or go as fast as 58 km/h.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
St Barbara's Cathedral
Kutná Hora, the city of silver, is deservedly attributed the other name “national treasury”. This is to say that its wealth helped to ensure the boom of the Czech Kingdom. The centre of the city was included in the UNESCO world heritage list in 1995 thanks to its historical importance and architectural gems. All of the streets, houses and churches exude a long history full of important events. The symbol of Kutná Hora is the unique late Gothic Cathedral of St. Barbara we will visit first. The monumental church is consecrated to St. Barbara, patron saint of miners. Its unique design with a three-tent roof and intricate flying buttresses make it an unmistakable Kutná Hora landmark and the town's most significant monument.
Gothic Stone Fountain
The Gothic stone fountain on Rejsek Square was built in 1493 by architect Matěj Rejsek (who also worked on the Church of St. Barbara and is the author of Prague's Powder Tower). The twelve-sided fountain is unusually large, four meters tall, and originally had a hexagonal roof. It supplied water to Kutná Hora when local water supply was cut off due to silver mining in the area. Water was brought in through wooden pipes from a well four kilometers away. The fountain is lit up beautifully after dark.
The starkly beautiful Gothic Church of St. James with its slender, 86 m tall tower, is a defining landmark on the Kutná Hora skyline. It is the oldest church in town. Its construction began in 1330 and ended in 1420. The church was originally projected with two towers but it soon turned out that the ground beneath was too unstable due to silver mining to hold both. The unfinished part of the second tower is clearly visible on the church exterior. For the unusual height of its tower, the church was also referred to as the Tall or High Church until the 17th century. The interior combines Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque artifacts.
