The most famous part of the Bohemian Paradise is undoubtedly the Prachovská rocks. Jičín can be a starting point for a tour of the Prachovské Rocks, from where it is about 7 kilometers to the entrance to the rock town.

Where there's an up, there's also a down! There's no shortage of steps or "up" or "down" here 😜. You could even call it interval training 😂. In any case, the route is very interesting and not boring!

Beautiful area, definitely worth a visit. Tip: arrive on time so you can park nearby and enjoy the impressive rocks without walking over them

About 95 km from Prague lies a beautiful landscape - Bohemian Paradise, with sandy rocks from the period 80-90 million years ago. Years ago, when there was still a primeval sea here. Part of it is called Prachovské skály - Prachau Rocks. It is a small natural area with many beautiful viewpoints, narrow paths through rocky crevices and slippery sandstone …

Once again the Bohemian Paradise, once more a rock town: today's hike was connected with climbing stairs - and with wonderful views.

On the way to Prague, we stop at the Bohemian Paradise. I've seen so many hikes here on Komoot over the past few days, I just had to go.
Awesome. Rock crevices as wide as our shoulders, breathtaking views, stairs up, stairs down. It felt like a third of the loop was on stairs. And for us Germans, it's even …

After a short visit to Trutnov and the next shower front, we arrived in the Czech Paradise near Prachov, one of the areas known as the "Rock Cities" with enormous sandstone formations. The paths lead up numerous stairs and through several rock crevices, with numerous viewpoints offering impressive views.
Many thanks to @Jü 💫 for the tip!

Bohemia is one of the most beautiful tourist regions in the Czech Republic. The most famous area of the Bohemian Paradise is undoubtedly the Prachov Rocks (Prachovské skály). Numerous small paths wind through them, making them perfect for hiking. The trails lead through narrow crevices, some leading high up to magnificent viewpoints.

You have to pay an entrance fee and also for parking. There are several routes (this is the green one, so look out for the viewpoints). It's definitely worth it because it's so beautiful. It's best to go early in the morning, as it can be hot and very crowded.
