We organize corporate events in the Moravian Karst in several formats. Participants try out engaging outdoor activities and explore the best of the natural wonders the Moravian Karst has to offer.
Cave systems, abysses and limestone cliffs practically ask to be part of the program, so we put them at the center of the whole day, not in the background as a backdrop for a group photo.
What the Moravian Karst Has to Offer
More than 1,000 caves lie hidden below the surface, and five of them are open to the public.
Above ground, you'll find karst sinks, canyons and nature trails. Protected sites include the Býčí skála, Vývěry Punkvy and Hádecká planinka national nature reserves and the Rudické propadání national nature monument.

Discover the Secrets of Moravian Karst
Secrets of Moravian Karst is an outdoor program in which you tour the Punkva Caves, ride boats through the underground cave system and take the cable car from Pustý žleb up to the edge of the Macocha Abyss.
Then come the more athletic activities: rappelling down limestone cliffs, riding mountain scooters down the gorge, and a competition in archery and other shooting activities. It's a well-balanced mix of activities for teams that want a varied and engaging program.
A Long History
People used the caves of the Moravian Karst from the Paleolithic through the Bronze and Iron Ages to the Middle Ages and the modern era. Cave sediments document the presence of Neanderthals more than 120,000 years ago.
Býčí skála was a heavily used cave. Cave sediments also yielded world-famous animal engravings of the Magdalenian culture from the end of the Paleolithic, and the region wasn't abandoned during Great Moravia either: metalworking workshops processed the local iron ore.
For a corporate group, that's a good reason to treat the cave tour as a full part of the day, not a break between activities.
A Story Game in Sloup and a Scooter Ride
In Sloup, we can set up a story-based Treasure Hunt where teams use a tablet to crack ciphers, puzzles and riddles. A scooter ride makes a natural follow-up to the game.
Large Programs in Front of Skalní Mlýn
The area in front of the Skalní mlýn hotel is big enough for a large outdoor program. You can play Sherlock Strikes Back, Just Like James Bond, Indiana and the Holy Grail or a Corporate Adventure Day here.
Jedovnice and Olšovec Pond
Jedovnice is one of the gateways to the Moravian Karst. Besides its karst formations, the area is also known for the Jedovnice Trails.
When your group stays at Kemp Olšovec or Penzion Kůlna, the Treasure Hunt Jedovnice game makes a good addition to the program (the game is in Czech).
Teams solve riddles, ciphers and rebus puzzles in the village and around Olšovec pond, searching for 44 treasures. The game doesn't take you into the caves, and anyone who wants to win will do plenty of walking.
Moravian Karst Highlights
The Macocha Abyss amazes visitors with its sheer size, and the Punkva river canyon draws them in with views of the karst landscape.
The Sloup-Šošůvka Caves form the second major cave pair alongside the Punkva Caves. A cave tour works well as a calmer stop between sports activities.
Development Program in the Cool Shade of the Rocks
Besides outdoor programs, you can also use the Moravian Karst for purely educational team-building programs, training sessions or seminars, and save the surroundings for relaxing after the work portion.
Accommodation in the Heart of Nature
The Moravian Karst has two accommodation centers whose standard and facilities suit corporate groups. Both have their own restaurant and conference hall, so you can handle a training session or company presentation in the morning and head out on the Secrets of Moravian Karst program in the afternoon.
We'll recommend the specific venue based on your dates, group size and how much space the work portion needs.
Send us your dates, the approximate number of participants and how long you'd like the training to be. Based on that, we'll prepare the day's schedule, a budget covering the program, accommodation and transportation, and the conference hall reservation.
Travel to Your Event on a Vintage Bus
The gateway to the Moravian Karst is the town of Blansko, which you can reach by train, and from there we can take you to the event venue on our vintage bus. Of course, you can also drive your own cars right up to the hotel; we'll then handle local transfers within the program.
Getting There and Where to Stay
The Moravian Karst lies north of Brno, and you can get here by train on the line from Brno to Česká Třebová. In season, the Krasobus line brings visitors all the way to downtown Blansko.
Besides hotels, the area has plenty of smaller guesthouses, cabins and apartments. They're best suited to smaller teams or events spread over several days.
