For those who’d like to get in some hill running, head to the Wilson Forest Park in the northwestern part of Brno. This park has a pleasant network of winding forest paths, with some great city views. We’ve mapped a 5.4 km route combining this park with the nearby Kraví hora Park.

Start at the north end of Wilson Forest Park, next to the Heritage Museum. A loop of this park is ~3 km, with additional path options. Very hilly! There’s a nice running track next to the Vyhlídka school. To connect to Kraví hora Park, exit the eastern end onto Krondlova and run for 0.3 km. A loop of Kraví hora, on scenic hill paths & fields, is ~1 km
Longer Run: Can connect to/combine this with our central Brno route that includes Špilberk Castle, using the 1.4 km Kraví hora connector path.Kraví hora Park

One of our favorite 'runseeing' tours in Europe. Explore the largely pedestrianized old town, Lužánky Park, the grounds of Špilberk Castle, and the hilltop Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul.
Some 10 km of pedestrian & cycle paths along the Svratka River, just south of the centre. We've mapped a southern loop of 6.4 km, and a northern route of up to 7 km one-way. Nearly all off-road.
Many km of running possible along the narrow Svitava River in the eastern part of Brno. Combination of dedicated path & small road. Water views and a good option for a longer off-road run.
Some decent running on waterfront and forested paths at this popular swimming & boating site. At Veveří Castle, enjoy some quiet farm roads, or trail running across the pedestrian bridge.
Popular recreation spot at the eastern edge of Brno features many km of mainly wooded trails for running. Some easier multi-use paths and some narrower, hillier trails.
Enjoy a wooded trail run in one of Brno's forest parks. There are several significantly sized ones located in the metro area. We've listed some of our favorites. Create your own route! Many of these parks are fairly hilly.
