Twice on Snezka - Weekend in Janske Lazne

All articles_button

With a visit, which came to Janské Lázně on the first weekend of our stay, we went to Sněžka. It seemed that the weather was good for us, we managed to drive less than twenty kilometers to the parking lot in Pec pod Sněžkou in less than half an hour. And all this in partly cloudy weather. The sun was still shining when we arrived at the lower station of the cable car. So we bought a one-way ticket to the top of Sněžka, because we planned to take the second trip on foot. But ten minutes was enough, after which we had to wait for departure to drag on. It started to drip slightly as soon as we got on, and when we were halfway there, it was pouring like a watering can, the weather was totally ruined, the sky was covered with thick gray clouds, and the "panoramas" we were looking forward to were there.

On the way out of the cable car, not only a nice pile of snow awaited us on Sněžka, but mainly rain and strong wind, which pushed us quite nicely in front of us, or on the contrary prevented us from walking when we changed direction and tried to see something on the other side of the mountain. Unfortunately, less and less could be seen with the passing minutes.

Gradually, it was almost impossible to see, so we had no choice but to take refuge in the Post Office of Agnes, which cracked at the seams, where we did not despise the hot welder, which warmed us up nicely. The post office is the highest building in the Czech Republic. Anežka got her name from the fact that the architects who created nine different designs named the designs with female names starting with A. Well, Anežka simply won the competition.

Although we waited an hour, the weather did not improve. We didn't want to walk down in the rain and wind, so we reluctantly bought another ticket and went down the cable car in dry and relatively warm weather.

In about ten days, I went to Sněžka for the second time with another visit, which came to me. Although the two trips were actually only a few days apart, the difference was diametrical. On the second attempt, the weather turned out to be number one, there were no monuments on Sněžka after the snow, we didn't need a welder to warm up, we enjoyed the beautiful "panoramas" and we made our way down on our own.

So, to sum it up, the second ascent (more like a trip) to Sněžka ended successfully, only because of the quite demanding terrain on the way down, my legs were really painful for a few more days
