MOUNTAIN SERVICE CELEBRATES 90 YEARS

Before the winter of 1934, an independent rescue squad was established in the Krkonoš Mountains, composed of firefighters and ski instructors, forming the basis of the Mountain Rescue Service founded on May 12, 1935.

You can look forward to an adrenaline rush, sporting challenges, fun for the whole family, and you will also see mountain rescuers at work.

You will learn lots of new things and explore the history of the Mountain Rescue Service.

And all this with excellent food, great music, and a concert by David Koller.
