Push your limits

Organize a corporate event in our region and combine it with sports! It is half an hour’s drive from Ostrava to the first Beskydy hills. On the other hand, to the Jeseníky Mountains, the journey takes only a little longer, but for that an untouched and sparsely populated landscape awaits you. Give golf or adrenaline a chance, for example. So good luck to the sport!
