Advent carriage rides in the Červený Dvůr Castle Park

A half-hour carriage ride with commentary, jingling bells, and warm fur blankets.

The carriage rides revive the historical tradition of the park being used as a place of leisure for noble owners and residents of the castle, as well as their guests. The ride follows the original grand walking and riding route, passing by the park's main attractions. Along the way, you'll learn about the purpose of features such as the snail hill with a pond, the bark cottage, and the pheasantry. From the unique perspective of the carriage, the charm of the park’s ingenious landscape design is revealed, with stunning vistas, fountains, an obelisk, and other structures and waterworks.

The approximately 100-year-old carriage, which has been carefully renovated by the Czech family company Exnar & Son, is pulled by Kuba, a gelding. He is a half-Haflinger, inheriting the noble blood of this Austrian breed, which, alongside English thoroughbreds, was once a hallmark of the Červený Dvůr horse breeding tradition.

The carriage departs from the cozy Café Bažantnice.
