Adrspach-Teplice Rocks

Reviewed By sterwuv - Melbourne

Visited here in late May. Saying WOW doesn't described these absolutely stunning and mind blowing sandstone formations. We were part of a very small tour group. Our tour guide described different formations, names etc and led us through very good walkways to Waterfalls, through narrow passages, up and down some VERY steep steps (be warned!). Apparently some of the Narnia films were filmed here? So glad we were able to visit this place, probably if we hadn't been on this tour we would never have had the chance to enjoy such beauty. Highly recommended.

White Tower

Reviewed By Rick S

I'm not big fun of climbing high, usually I leave towers or any other view points unnoticed, but I was very pleased to see White tower in Hradec from inside after renovation work and felt simply astonished there.
Whole tower is divided by several levels, all nicely light and sound up. Every level occupied with some useful informations presented in various forms. It felt very nice and special inside of tower and final level with round balcony allowed great view all over city and more. I was lucky to see some snow at distant mountain....
I do highly recommend White tower to all, I could assure you that you will not regret visit....

The highest mountain in Czechia! Once you reach the top, you have a good feeling not only thank to the beautiful view, but also thank to you made it on your own. :-) You can also use the new cable cabin to get up.

ZOO Dvur Kralove

Reviewed By verysek - Bishops Stortford, United Kingdom

Amazing place! Must be the most nicest Zoo in Czech Republic! Fantastic African deco!
We have visited in summer holidays so it was busy, however we have arrived early morning and went straight on the Safari trip - guided tour. Our driver/guide was great, full of animal knowledge and very entertaining with very interesting facts. We were surprise how big this place is and how many animals were there.
Lots to do with children, massive rope park, adventure park and lots activities on each corner of the Zoo. Animals here look very happy and well look after. Lots of places to get food and beverage and large souvenir shop too.
Overall? Great place to spend with family and friends, we have spent there a whole day!

Teplicke skaly Capi vrch

Reviewed By pyotrek - Warsaw, Poland

We had a family weekend down south of Poland with couple of friends too and we decided to go for a short trip to see Teplicke Skaly (Rock City). It was 45 min. ride from the place we stayed.
It's easy to get there with GPS. Plenty of parking space but be aware that it was first weekend of September so not quite peak of summer season.
Family admission is 170Kč. There is beautiful pond/lake just in front of the entrance. Unfortunately - swimming is not allowed. Shame, because it was hot as hell!
You walking along clearly marked path. Views are amazing! There are some steep walk inns and walk downs but not many. I was with my kids 8 and 10 and they made it .
We spend there c.a. 3 hours. There is restaurant where you can have cold one and simple meal. You need to be prepared to pay 100Kč/person/meal.
I recommend to exchange PLN or EUR to Kč before you get to Adrspach, because difference is huge!

Prachov Rocks

Reviewed By BandKath - Leyland

Not the best signed directions when driving in from Turnov. As advised when we parked we took the Yellow marked trail, easy walking to start with but then you begin to climb up to a level which is at the height of the top of the rocks, the views from up there were fantastic, the walk down was down a narrow stepped walkway with no hand rail.
You do need to have a reasonable level of fitness to take this route and possibly the same for the other routes. Not sure that I would like to be here at busy periods so worth selecting when you visit if possible.

After having seen a few medieval movies, one will enjoy seeing the show life! Various knights on horses are competing against each other, collecting points in every round.
Due to the popularity of this place on weekends, they made the show free of charge midweek to shift customers to less busy days..
Ignore the "no entry" sign from the main road (saying hotel guests only), there are plenty parking places on the back side of the building!

Mountaineering Museum Dolni Adrspach

Reviewed By JanisLatvia - Latvia

Quite different from Hruboskalsko in Česky raj. There is a well placed walking trail for a couple of hours of slow walking, Some rocks are in interesting forms, between the rocks weaves narrow ravines. Some stairs are quite steep and at least one gap between the rocks maybe an obstacle for larger people.
The site can be accessed by the train and by car. There are quite a large parking places (but you have to buy tickets) and the entry is also charged, but it is worth to pay, because the site is well kept.
