A forested hill rising above Malá Strana offering the best panoramic views of Prague's red rooftops and spires, accessible by a charming funicular railway. The slender Eiffel-inspired lookout tower at the summit gives an even higher vantage point for a small fee. The hill is a genuine local escape — families picnic here, couples walk the orchards in spring blossom. The funicular gets crowded on weekends; walking up via the garden paths takes about 20 minutes and is more pleasant.
