Kozojedy combines a location shaped by forests with cultural and historical points of interest and local leisure activities. Forests surround the village on three sides; in the village center is a spring 3.5 meters deep. Other attractions include St. Martin’s Church, the former Slavic hillfort at Na Starých Zámkách, and sport fishing at two ponds. You can plan your stay around local history, the landscape, and individual local activities.
Getting there by bus
Kozojedy is served by bus routes 381, 387, 660, and 959 as part of the Prague Integrated Transport system. Check the timetable for your travel dates before setting out. If traveling by bus is part of your accommodation decision, factor the suitable connection into your plans from the outset.
St. Martin’s Church and Na Starých Zámkách
St. Martin’s Church is about one kilometer from Kozojedy. It was originally a Romanesque building and was renovated in the 16th century. Two building phases can therefore be distinguished at the church: its Romanesque origins and the later renovation. From there, Na Starých Zámkách can be reached on foot in about 15 minutes along a stream. A Slavic hillfort once stood at this site. If you are interested in local history, you can visit both places: first the church, then follow the path along the stream to the former fortification.
Forests, spring, and leisure
The forests on three sides give Kozojedy its landscape setting. The spring in the village center is another specific local feature: it is 3.5 meters deep. Kozojedy has a soccer field for leisure activities; check locally to see whether it is available. The local angling club runs sport fishing at the Na Pastvinách and Pod Hotelem ponds. Before you arrive, check the access conditions for the ponds and the rules in effect. The options are quite distinct: the soccer field is an amenity in the village, while sport fishing takes place at two named ponds.
Cauldron goulash and Masopust
At the traditional cauldron goulash competition, beef goulash is cooked in a cauldron suspended over a fire. Visitors were also invited to sample the goulash at the 2026 event. At Masopust 2026, the evening continued after the procession at U Heřmanů with music and dancing. The two occasions have different highlights: one focuses on preparing goulash, while the other offers a musical end to the procession.
The main considerations for your travel plans are easy to distinguish: the church and Na Starých Zámkách form a cultural and historical visit, with an approximate walking time; the soccer field and sport fishing appeal to different leisure interests, while events are worth visiting on the dates they take place. If you are considering Kozojedy as a place to stay overnight, think about which of these local features you would like to shape your stay.
