Traveller notes on Linz in July
Notes from nearby Český Krumlov (56 km away)
Linz doesn't have its own notes for July yet — these are about Český Krumlov, close enough to share the season.
July is peak season in Český Krumlov, and the forum's advice is entirely about the shape of the day rather than the month: day-trippers from Prague and elsewhere arrive around 11am and leave about 4pm, so the town is jammed in the middle and much quieter either side of it. Their two fixes are really the same fix — be at the castle ticket office before 9am, and stay the night, because the place is described as magical once the coaches have gone. On weather, July averages 24°C but is genuinely wet: sixteen rain-days, the sort of month where an evening indoors is no hardship.
