Janské Lázně

Janské Lázně is a spa town nestled at the foot of the Krkonoše (Giant Mountains) range in north-eastern Bohemia, known since the 19th century for treating neurological conditions thanks to its warm mineral springs. The town, with architecture typical of Central European spa resorts, also serves as a gateway to the surrounding peaks: a cable car links the centre to Černá hora, offering popular ski slopes in winter and hiking trails leading to the Krkonoše ridges in summer, close to the national park of the same name. The clean mountain air and unhurried pace of local life appeal to both those seeking treatment and nature lovers. For a bite to eat, the Bellevue restaurant is a locally noted spot, serving regional dishes in a traditional setting. The town itself remains modest in size, making it a peaceful base for exploring the Giant Mountains through forest walks, outdoor activities and spa relaxation, all within an unspoilt, low-key atmosphere compared to busier resorts nearby.
