Stromovka is the largest park in the city and the most popular park in Prague for jogging. It’s about 3 km north of Old Town and easily reachable by public transport. The park also features Výstaviště exhibition ground, a planetarium, Tipsport Arena, the Lapidarium of the National Museum, the World of the Oceans Aquarium, Pyramid Theatre, and Lunapark, an amusement park in the northern section of this area.NOTE: Nearby is the Running Mall, a center for Prague running: store, training center, lounge, run club, classes.
For running,Stromovka is mostly flat and it has a series of soft dirt trails to give your legs some relief from the cobblestones. There are also some open grassy areas. You can create your own route. A loop of the park perimeter is 6-8 km. We’ve also mapped a 5k loop: Starting from the Výstaviště Holešovice Tram Station, enter the park. Begin your run heading towards two of the largest ponds in the park. Enjoy the shaded paths as you wind your way along the numerous well maintained paths looping past the Marold panorama (a panoramic image, of historical battle of Lipan, which took place on 30th May 1434) and back to the start. Add to the run by enjoying some of the other myriad paths in the park.
Add-On: Combine with Letná Park just to the south. Use Čechova, which is near the playground. Combining the two parks can be an 8-10 km run.
