From this junction, the Pauline Valley can only be accessed westward (very easy to walk).
The section along the Chrbska Kamenice river heading north is no longer signposted, as it …

View of the Paulinengrund

Highlight • Viewpoint

Not far from the Steinerne Rinne, a little off the hiking trail, you will find this modest view of the Paulinengrund. It is completely unsecured.

March 10, 2025,Runde bei Jetrichovice/Dittersbach

A small but really nice tour in Bohemian Switzerland.
From a small car park just above Jetricovice, we went down into the wild valley of the Chribska Kamenice, into the Paulinengrund and 4 km along the river. Then up to the edge of Rynartice. There we could admire the dwarves on the rocks. On a beautiful forest path we reached …

Based on the weather forecast (which fortunately didn't come true, apart from a few light showers), we went for a ride from Jetrichovice through the most beautiful autumn forests to Rynartice on the Kreuzberg (the view today was so-so) and then through the highly recommended and superbly beautiful Paulinengrund
back along the Kamenice River. I hardly got wet, and the …

On Whitsun Sunday, I took a relaxing hike through the picturesque Paulinengrund valley near Jetrichovice in Bohemian Switzerland. Following the Kreibitzbach stream, I discovered new views around every bend. The small Paulinensee lake is a perfect place for a break.

This beautiful hike was ideal for today's very hot day. The path leads mostly through shady area. But we still worked up a sweat. Unfortunately, we had forgotten our bathing suits and were therefore unable to cool off in the pool at the end of the hike. In Grieselův rybnik (Griesler's pond) you could have jumped in without it, like …

We fought for a day of vacation, late summer weather...off to the Pauline Valley near Jetrichovice...a short but challenging hike along the beautiful Chribska Kamenice River, which we crossed several times by bridge. We were able to walk through a former water tunnel that supplied the mill.... We made our way back on the road, making a detour to the …

Now on the official hiking trails... a dream.

On this route, we encountered nude hikers for the first time... a bit of an unusual sight... but to each their own... in any case, you can see the numerous ticks better when they're trying to settle on your body 😉
