If you are going on a city trip with children, it is a good idea to familiarise yourself with the various playgrounds in the area. Fortunately, this is not difficult in Prague – there is a wide selection of children’s playgrounds, which are perfect for a break during your tour. Your children will thank you for it and you yourself can take a little breather and plan your next destination in peace.
If you’re out and about in Prague’s Old Town, near Wenceslas Square, be sure to stop by the playground in the Franciscan Garden. Its entrance is a little hidden in a corner of Jungmannplatz, but once you’ve found it, there’s a small, lovely children’s playground to keep your little ones occupied for a while. As the playground is set in an idyllic natural oasis, the view is also well worth seeing for adults.
Since the Charles Bridge is not to be missed when visiting Prague, the playground in Kampa Park, located right next to the bridge, is a must-see for families. To get there, cross the Charles Bridge and walk along the Lesser Town. Turn right towards the Vltava River.
The children’s island Dětský ostrov was created especially for children and is a unique attraction in Prague. It’s located on an island in the Vltava River, which can only be reached by bridge or boat. It features many sports facilities for all ages and a large playground with any type of equipment a child’s heart could desire.
