December - March
Winter is best known for the cold, but also for the start of all the Christmas markets. It’s also possible to get snow this season.

June - August
This will be the busiest time to visit the Czech Republic, but you’ll also have the best chance of good weather to do some hikes or visit the famous cities. The downside would be the prices that will increase.

September - November
Fall is an excellent time to visit the Czech Republic, because of the colorful foliage on the hiking trails! As a bonus, it’s less expensive to see, but this period has more rainfall, so you won’t be able to do everything.
