Basic Information


o The place


The school takes place in the beautiful countryside of "Posazavi" (= "near the Sazava river") region,
in Sport Hotel Kacov (60 kilometers south-east of Prague), the same place for the previous three schools.

There are good facilities and conditions for sporting activities, as hiking, swimming in the hotel pool, playing volleyball, basketball, tennis, football. Mini-golfists and lovers of petanque, cricket, softball or table tennis will be satisfied, too.


o Travel information


Special bus from Prague to Kacov and back is a part of the conference service. The bus from Prague to Kacov will leave on Friday, May 22, 2015 in the afternoon (approximately at 17:00 - the exact time will be specified) and return to Prague on Friday, May 29, 2015 at around 10:00. More details on the schedule and arrival to/departure from Kacov will be later given on the "Further information" page.

Driving directions:    
1. Leave Prague on the D1 highway, direction Brno (south-east). Exit this highway (by turning "left") on the Exit 49 (which means it is 49 km from Prague). Continue on the regular road no. 125, direction Kacov, Kutna Hora. 2. Continue on road no. 125 for approximately 4.5 km, then there is the possibility to turn right to Kacov.

The whole distance from the borders of Prague to Sporthotel Kacov is less than 60 km and you should cover it in around 40 minutes.

Due to the technical reasons we cannot accept payment by cash at the conference place anymore. The payment should be made by the direct bank transfer to the following accounts.

Please note that the number denoted here by the so-called "variable symbol" (615004) is important to us: it is the internal identification code, identifying uniquely our conference among all the conferences organized by the Charles university. You should write this number into any part of the payment order which sounds like "payment details" or "reason for payment".
