Why go
This west-bank route suits visitors who enjoy art, small landmarks and a genuine uphill walk. Begin with Museum Kampa before crossing the short distance to the Lennon Wall. The Church of Our Lady Victorious adds a quieter interior before the climb toward Petřín Lookout Tower. Allow more time for the slope than the map distance suggests. Strahov Monastery makes a natural final stop along the ridge; nearby Loreta is optional if your legs and the day's access allow another interior. The route keeps the hill sights together and avoids trying to combine Petřín with distant Vyšehrad or the zoo.
