There is a small grocery store, a school, and a post office, there is good phone reception. The closest cities are Ostrov (5 km) and Karlovy Vary (12 km) where you can find doctors, pharmacies and ATMS. The region is popular among tourists for its beautiful countryside near the Ore Mountains.

This short project will take place in the small town of Hroznetin, at the foot of the picturesque Ore Mountains in cooperation with the Local Action Group Krusne Hory (Ore Mountains). The LAG focuses on the support and development of the region through organizing and funding educational and cultural projects, connecting various stakeholders, preparing tourist brochures or co-organizing volunteer activities. The project aims to restore a forgotten Christian cemetery, activate the local community and introduce a piece of Czech land to the volunteers. At this project, you will actively contribute to the achievement of UN SDG11 Sustainable Cities and Communities.
