Where to go in Rožnov for playgrounds and outdoor fun?
If you mainly want to let the kids run around, you do not have far to go from the guesthouse:
- Playgrounds in the town parks: climbing frames, swings and sandpits, mostly just a few minutes on foot from the centre.
- Green spaces by the Bečva river: flat ground for running around, ball games and picnics, with pleasant shade in summer.
- The Bečva cycle path starts 100 m from the guesthouse, it is flat and runs through the river valley. Ideal for a child’s first pedalling kilometres, a balance bike or a pushchair. More in our article about the Bečva cycle path.
You can wheel bikes and balance bikes straight out of the door and set off without having to drive anywhere first. The valley is flat, so even small legs can cover surprising distances.
Which attractions in Rožnov do children love most?
Rožnov revolves mainly around the open-air museum, but there is more fun for children to be found:

- The aquapark is just a short distance from the guesthouse, an easy choice for a warm afternoon.
- Seasonal events in town, markets, festivals and children’s programmes, held mainly during the school holidays and public holidays.

What can children enjoy in Rožnov during a hot summer?
In the warm months, children are drawn to the water above all:
- Paddling in the Bečva: the shallows by the bank are a summer hit, bring wellies or a change of clothes.
- The aquapark, a short distance from the guesthouse, for a morning or afternoon cool-off.
- Swimming nearby, up to 30 minutes by car, if you want to venture further for the water.
Always bring sunscreen, a hat and plenty to drink, the Bečva valley can get really hot in summer. You will find more tips for trips with water among our trips with kids in the Beskydy.
Where to go with kids when it rains in the Beskydy?
The Beskydy weather has its moods, which is why we have a plan B right here. Our Anděl café has a cosy kids corner, dry, warm and right next to your table. We are open daily from 11:00 to 20:00, so the children play while you take your time over a specialty coffee and a homemade cake. We think of the whole family’s menu, and we also bake our cakes in vegan, gluten-free and lactose-free variants.
“When it rains outside, the children disappear into the corner and the parents finally get to finish their coffee in the warm, that is what a rainy afternoon looks like with us.”
If you want to stay dry away from the guesthouse too, explore the covered exhibitions at the open-air museum, or find more inspiration in our tips for a rainy day with kids.

- An extra bed is 599 Kč per person per night, a cot is 100 Kč for the whole stay by arrangement, just note the number of children when you book.
