The Rudolfstein, named after Prince Rudolf Kinský, offers the most beautiful view in Dittersbacher Schweiz.
Attention: narrow, steep ascent! One should be fearless and take small children by the hand.

Rock Formations in Bohemian Switzerland National Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

There are many beautiful rock formations along the path. When you walk along the path you might think they are large towers and the entrance to a castle.
Mother Nature's rock play is very nice.

February 3, 2024,15+16 - Über den Jubiläumsweg auf die aussichtsreichen Felsen der "Dittersbacher Schweiz"

The tours Claudia, Manja and I take together are really rare and always reserved and planned well in advance. We last visited the beautiful Biela Valley in autumn. Yesterday we drove a little longer into what is probably the most varied landscape in Bohemian Switzerland - Dittersbach Switzerland.

The three towering views are always worth climbing with the family in autumn. This time with a wide arc to the start at Rudolphstein. There was just enough time to make it back to the starting point at dusk. The dinner afterwards was twice as delicious. Right on the edge, we noticed that the spruce trees were dying in large …

Today, on the last day of our hiking tour together, we went from Jetrichovice up to the Tokán/Balzhütte. After the great fire, only the foundations of the latter remained standing and are waiting for a new beginning.
In the Chata Tokán, everyone ate a portion of fruit dumplings with quark sauce and actually that was exactly the reason for the …

It got down to business pretty quickly, it went steadily uphill and quickly reached Mariina Skala (Marienfels, 428 meter high rocky mountain and one of the most beautiful viewpoints in Bohemian Switzerland).
The Vilemilina Wilhelminenwand
(Second most beautiful observation tower).
I reached my limits at the Rudolf Towers - but I did it!!

A beautiful circular hike in Bohemian Switzerland in perfect hiking weather 🌞
From Rudolf's Rock (Rudolfův kámen), over the Vilemínina vyhlídka (Wilhelmine Wall), to the absolute highlight, the Mariina skála (Mariina Rock) and the Falkenstein Castle (Hrad Falkenštejn), simply picturesque 😍
I highly recommend this tour; a dream for every hiker. The free hiking parking lot south of Jetřichovice is …

December 30, 2022,⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wanderung- Marienfelsen

When I asked my root dwarf where he would like to go hiking again, I got the answer "There where you can eat Palacinken!". 😅
Ok, so much choice on Jetrichovice. We have been here before in autumn and apparently the Palacinken has stayed in our memories. This time, however, we designed the tour a little differently. First we headed …

Today we're heading to the striking viewpoints at Jetrichovice, Marienfelsen, Wilhelminenwand and Rudolfstein. Lots of steps, up and down, a small reward at the end. 🐱
