CHKO Český ráj's Essential Wonders

CHKO Český ráj, or the Bohemian Paradise, is defined by its dramatic sandstone rock cities and a high density of medieval fortresses. This protected area features the iconic twin towers of Trosky Castle, the rock-cut chambers of Drábské světničky, and the Gothic Valdštejn Castle. The landscape is characterized by deep pine forests, volcanic peaks, and Renaissance chateaus like Hrubá Skála and Hrubý Rohozec, connected by a network of trails leading to panoramic overlooks such as Mariánská vyhlídka.
