Motol: Museums, Go-Karts and a Natural Outdoor Swimming Pool

In Motol, vehicle history, hands-on experiences, electric go-karts and a natural outdoor swimming pool come together.

The Trabant Museum Motol presents the complete history of the production of vehicles of the Trabant brand.

At the Greyhound Racing Park Motol, you can drive electric go-karts on a racetrack in Košíře Motol Nature Park. Přírodní koupaliště Motol is also a natural outdoor swimming pool.

What does the Trabant Museum display?

The Trabant Museum Motol focuses on the complete history of the production of Trabant vehicles. For your visit, this means a thematic approach that does not stop at a single model. The history of this brand’s manufacturing is presented as a coherent subject. Anyone interested in technical development and the actual production of vehicles will therefore find a destination here with a clearly defined focus.

This focus is made particularly vivid by the opportunity to sit inside a cutaway Trabant. Visitors can also try steering and shifting gears there. The museum visit is therefore not limited to looking at the vehicle: you also encounter it from a practical perspective and can test key operating processes yourself.

What active experiences are available in Motol?

At the Greyhound Racing Park Motol, you can drive electric go-karts on a racetrack in Košíře Motol Nature Park. The destination therefore combines a specific driving activity with a designated course. The electric go-karts are the key difference from the Trabant Museum: instead of vehicle production and operation in the museum, the focus is on driving yourself around the racetrack.

The desired type of experience is decisive when choosing between these two activities. At the museum, visitors can sit inside a cutaway Trabant and try steering and shifting gears. At the Greyhound Racing Park, by contrast, the focus is on driving electric go-karts. Both activities are related to vehicles, but they involve different forms of engagement.

Přírodní koupaliště Motol is a natural outdoor swimming pool, providing a third focus. Here, the emphasis is not on the world of vehicles but on swimming. The designation as a natural outdoor swimming pool describes the character of the destination without presupposing any specific opening hours or seasonal availability.

What does this mean when choosing a hotel in Motol?

If the complete production history of the Trabant brand is the main focus, the museum becomes the central cultural attraction. Those who prefer an active engagement with vehicles can consider the Greyhound Racing Park with its electric go-karts.

What other destinations can you consider when planning your trip?

If you would like to consider destinations beyond Motol for your trip planning, you can find Hloubětín, Dáblice, Vinohrady, Lipence, Kbely, Prague 4, Radotin and Cakovice here.
