More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You meet at a low-ceilinged concrete bunker just outside Prague, where the smell of damp stone and diesel lingers and a local guide unfolds maps stained by time. The morning light slants across a metal plaque; beyond it, a rough 4x4 waits, tires ready for the unpaved lanes that cut through fields where aircraft once roared and fell.
