Prague–Vienna Greenways (Prague section) Prague–Vienna Greenways is a 470 km-long network of biking and hiking trails connecting the two historic cities. The starting point is Central Park in Prague 13. The route continues through the Prokop Creek Valley along the trail A12 through Hlubočepy to Barrandov Bridge where it crosses the Vltava River to Prague 4. The greenway then follows the biking trail A22 through Michelský Forest to Central Park in Prague 11, then through Milíčov Forest to Újezd u Průhonic. Here, the greenway leaves Prague and continues along the route 11 via Průhonice towards Tábor.
