The best-known route is the Golden Trail of Bohemian Paradise, which follows the upper edge of the rock town and connects several viewpoints. Along the way, you can visit Hrubá Skála Chateau, Valdštejn Castle or Bukovina Arboretum, so the trip naturally alternates between rocks, forest, history and places worth pausing at for a while.
The Hrubá Skála region is one of the most striking stops when exploring the sandstone rock towns of the Czech Republic. This is where you fully understand why Bohemian Paradise has such a powerful name – tall rock towers, narrow trails, viewpoints above the treetops and places where nature and history meet naturally.
The most beautiful viewpoints of Hruboskalsko
The best-known places in Hruboskalsko include viewpoints that reveal the rock town from above, each in a slightly different way. From Mariánská Viewpoint, one of the most iconic views opens up towards Hrubá Skála Chateau, Trosky Castle and the sandstone towers below. Na Kapelu Viewpoint looks straight into the heart of the rock town, where slender stone towers rise among the trees like a natural stage set. U Lvíčka Viewpoint and Janova Viewpoint are also worth a stop. Each adds another angle to a landscape that, in Hruboskalsko, keeps opening up and hiding again among the trees.
