An exception applies to ski resorts, but a negative test is required, he added. For skiers, the police will monitor this significantly. &#8220;We are ready to enforce and control it,&#8221; Ham\u00e1\u010dek said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ski resorts will be allowed to operate from Friday, but there will be no accommodation and catering facilities in operation. \u0160vejdar asked Czech visitors to follow the related measures. &#8220;Visiting rules and access roads will be adjusted,&#8221; the police president summed up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intensive inspections will mainly concern the direction from Poland, he added. &#8220;Citizens of Poland cannot arrive without a valid PCR test, the police will carry out random but very intensive checks on access roads from the borders to the premises, but also on the parking lots and slopes that will be in operation,&#8221; \u0160vejdar advised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Czech skiers have been traveling to neighboring Poland, where the slopes have been open since 5 December. Entry into the country is free, accommodation in accommodation facilities is not possible. According to information on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website, the operation of catering facilities is limited. Especially on the last weekends, when cable cars were not allowed in the Czech Republic, skiers from the Eagle Mountains, for example, took the opportunity to ski the nearby Polish resorts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Czech police will screen foreigners visiting ski resorts for coronavirus when they open on Friday.
