Bohemian Switzerland National Park Essentials

Bohemian Switzerland National Park features the largest natural sandstone arch in Europe, Pravčická brána, alongside the Kamenice River's deep canyons. The landscape is defined by the Jetřichovice rock formations, offering elevated viewpoints from Mariina skála and Vilemínina stěna. Historic sites include the ruins of 14th-century rock castles Šaunštejn and Falkenštejn, and the 16th-century Dolský Mlýn. The area is characterized by temperate pine forests and distinct sandstone towers shaped by centuries of erosion.
