Hrad Střekov

Hrad Strekov is a great castle to visit. It's on the better end of castle ruins and is a very inexpensive adventure. The castle offers a fantastic view of the Elbe River Valley and has a variety of rooms and lookout points.You could do it in an hour if needed and comfortably in two hours. We brought a two year old and a four year old and they were fine. There are some steep stairs but also room to run around.

A fantastic castlePart in ruins part still intactI was visiting around 10am and only saw 4 other peopleBeing perched on the cliff side and over looking the river ElbeNot a huge castle ,but this adds to its charmYou can easily while away an hour or soThere are some great original parts still left and some good write ups but not too much so you lose intrestThe views as you can imagine are amazingI really like the fact you have to ring the ball to be let out after you have finishedYou can get a laminated a4 numbered description to take around , but all points have the summaryI liked the knights hall , with spears and cost of arms along with a suit of armour ....Worth a visit and helps you with a look into the past but without getting to bigger downGood walking around the remainsWear good solid footwear

free parking near castle, wonderful view down to Elbe valley, interesting path through castle, pretty good restaurant with terrace in castle area.

The view from there is nice, but I didn't go inside de castle.

Very well preserved, magnificent view of Usti and the river. If you have chance, visit. There is also a cafe where you can have a drink/icecream and enjoy the view :)

Outstanding views from within.A little touristy.A bit of a walk if you’re not able to park in the upper lot.

Absolutely outstanding place. Plus fantastic views.
