Step into centuries-old Slavic tradition on a day trip from Prague to Hlinsko. This journey brings you face-to-face with the famous Masopust carnival—a living folk ritual of masks, music, and processions preserved as UNESCO heritage.
Your professional driver will collect you directly from your Prague accommodation, transport you comfortably to Hlinsko, and return you door-to-door after a full day of cultural discovery.
A small town where folk traditions don’t sit in museums—they’re still lived. The Hlinsko Masopust is one of the Czech Republic’s most authentic folk traditions, with roots reaching back to the 18th century. Celebrated annually in the villages of the Hlinecko region, this Shrovetide procession marks the final days before Lent with ritual, music, and a symbolic masquerade. The custom was preserved largely through rural communities, passing unchanged from generation to generation. In 2010, it was inscribed on UNESCO’s List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Watching the procession today offers a rare glimpse into living folklore, where history is not reenacted but actively practiced.
