Prague: choose the season before the trip style
The lowest and highest average daily highs are 23.9 °C apart. Temperature is therefore the first decision layer, while rain and sunshine refine the choice of month.
How to read the curve

Prague: match the route to the season
Not every walk is flat
Prague City Tourism distinguishes hilly routes such as Vyšehrad from largely flat stretches in Karlín, where the climb to Vítkov is an exception. Choose the route as deliberately as the month. A city climate figure describes neither gradients nor path conditions.
Background: Prague City Tourism · Walking routes
September trades July warmth for fewer rainy days
September is cooler by day than July and has fewer rainy days in our series. That can suit longer city walks, but check the lower average low for evenings. A higher summer temperature is not automatically better for every route.
