Apartmány
Experience something unconventional with your children! Summer in the Bohemian Forest is full of surprises, and the year 2025 brings an especially great one – the historical steam train, familiarly called “Všudybylka”, is returning to the rails! And what’s the best part?
Its route leads directly through Černá v Pošumaví, which is just a few minutes’ walk from our Apartments Nad rybníky in Hůrka. No more long commutes – just walk from the apartment to the station and let yourself be carried away by the smell of coal and the nostalgic hissing of steam.

📍 Staying with us – your advantage!
Our Apartments Nad rybníky in Hůrka are an ideal starting point. You can reach the station in Černá v Pošumaví on foot in a few minutes without having to drive. Leave the car at the apartment, take the kids or the camera, and set out in grand style – on the rails and in clouds of steam.
📍 Enjoy even more fun with us…
Don’t miss this unique summer opportunity. It’s not every day that a steam locomotive passes just a few meters from your accommodation. Soak up the scent of nostalgia and enjoy an experience you won’t forget. And after returning? An evening swim in our pool or a quiet drink under the pergola will ensure perfect holiday comfort.
And if you get an appetite for something good after the ride, we heartily recommend a stop at the Fish Restaurant Hůrka – it’s just a short distance to the train and to a delicious plate.
Book your stay while there are still options to choose from.
We look forward to seeing you!
