The academic programme of the summer school consists of general and specialisation courses, guest lectures, discussion panels, optional movie nights and a moot court. There is also a non-academic dimension of this summer school: you are invited to participate in various trips and sports, to use the wellness equipment of the chalet (sauna, whirlpool) and to enjoy the free evenings, getting to know your fellow students and the lecturers. The free weekend also gives you a chance to go hiking in the surrounding national park or to explore Prague.
