Travelling from Prague to Horice Motorcycle races May 08

Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to get a train from Prague to Horice? i,m planning on going to a motorcycle race in Horice in may 08. any help appreciated. thanks:T

 

Try the timetable.

 

Sorry, i cant understand the timetable, so does anyone know how i can get from Prague airport to Horice? im told that by bus is easier so are there any bus stations nearby, also i wont arrive in Prague until after 8pm so will there still be busses running at that time? cheers T

 

Be more specific about your travel plans. At what day and time of day do you want to be in Hořice? Or at what time will you be at the airport to start the travel? There are several buss or train or combinations of these connections from Prague to Hořice during the day, from different bus/train stations in Prague.
Do you look for shortest time, lowest price or minimum transfers?
e.g.
Praha letište (NAD),Letište Ruzyne departure at 9:30
airport express to Praha Holešovice
than Supercity express SC75 to Pardubice
arrival in Pardubice hl.n. 11:20
then train O5650 11:25 to Hradec Králové hl.n.
arrival in HK at 11:55
the another train O5508 at 12:04 to Horice v Podkrkonoší, arrival at 12:41,
price about 500 CZK

 

i,ll arrive in Prague airport at 8pm, i want to travel from Prague airport to Horice that night so where do i get a bus? cheers T

 

I'm not sure you get a connection in the evening, I'll try to find out ...

 

Thankyou, that would be much appreciated as i would like to know if i should arrange overnight accomodation or not.

 

It seems that there is no bus to Horice after 8 pm. The fastest connection is train to Hradec Kralove and then some busees, arrival in Hořice before 5 am next day.

Probably the best connection by direct bus is from Praha Černý Most (metro station) at 6:35 (am) 9.5., arrival in Hořice 8:12 (price 112 CZK). To Černý most by bus and Metro or by taxi, it depends, but you have to spend somewhere the night...

 

If you want to go by night trains, there are two connections:
Praha main station 22:11
Hradec Králové arr. at 23:49, but then you have to wait until 3:00, then bus to Jičín, arr. at 3:50 and another bus to Hořice at 4:20, arrival in Hořice 4:44.

The other one:
Praha main st. 0:06
Pardubice arr. 1:23
train from Pardubice 1:29, arr. in Hradec Králové 1:53, then same bus at 3:00 to Jičín

In Hradec walk from train to bus station about 7 min.

 

Not as easy as i thought but many thanks for taking the time to help, thankyou for your help again. cheers T

If all else fails, how much roughly would a taxi cost from Prague airport directly to Horice :shock:

 

The route is about 130 km, but I do not know actual (fair) prices of taxis in Prague. 25 Kč/km I guess? So 3250 Kč ($180, €120). But airport taxis generaly can be more expensive, as well as taxis in the very center of Prague - even 90 Kč/km. For a short term stay, you should consider renting a car at the airport.

 

Thanks for all your replies, suppose the best option would be to stay overnight in Prague and catch a bus the next morning. Is it possible to get somewhere cheap in Prague??
