Here are a couple of highly recommended walks around Prague:

The Royal [Way] Walk: Starting at the Art Nouveau glory of Municipal House, this walk - which is used be the old coronation route - passes various notable buildings through the city's heart: from Staromestske Namesti [Old Town Square], across Karluv Most [Charles Bridge] and up to imposing Prazsky Hrad [Prague Castle] and the St Vitus Cathedral. The walk continues along the Vltava river bank and up Petrin Hill for a panoramic view of the Castle and the city.

New Town/Old Town Walk: This takes you through both the city's new and old faces, starting at the National Museum in the New Town's rather dull Wenceslas Square - previously home to Russian tanks, now a popular shopping area - through an open market place and along narrow back streets to Old Town Square, then continues to Josefov, the old Jewish District.
