The Czech Republic has 4 distinct seasons.

Spring is usually cooler, the temperature from early March to late May ranges around 10°C on average. In these months, the rainfall/snowfall in the Czech Republic averages about 161 mm. From March to May you can bask in over 470 hours of sunshine.

Summer temperature is about 17°C. However, this also includes mountainous areas! In the towns the temperature in June, July and August may reach as high as 35°C. If you want to cool down, you may want to visit the mountain region.

September, which is still relatively warm, it is referred to as the “Indian summer”. October brings more rain and the average daily temperature falls to 10°C. This is reflected in the leaves falling and changing colour. Late autumn you may see the first ground frosts.

Winter lasts roughly from December to February. Temperatures in towns may drop as low as -20°C, and in the mountains, they range even lower. Recent winters have been milder with temperatures slightly below zero – yet still cold enough to enjoy skiing in various places, such the Krkonoše Mountains, cross-country skiing for example in Šumava or just taking a romantic walk through snow-covered Prague.
