-Summer
-Autumn
-Winter
11. The Czech Republic has a temperate continental climate,
with relatively hot summers and cold, cloudy and snowy
winters. Most rain falls during the summer. The
temperature difference between summer and winter is
relatively high, due to the landlocked geographical
position.
Within the Czech Republic, temperatures vary greatly,
depending on the elevation. In general, at higher
altitudes, the temperatures decrease and precipitation
increases. Another important factor is the distribution of
the mountains; therefore, the climate is quite varied.

surrounded by mostly low mountains, such as the Giant
Mountains (Krkonoše). The highest point in the country, Sněžka
