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.

After the morning tour of the Lilienstein, it was supposed to be a leisurely tour in Bohemia. The starting point was Jetřichovice and from there we went, among other things, to Rudolfstein, Marienfels and Falkenstein. The perfect end to an active weekend in the Elbi.

The landscape around Jetrichovice somehow reminds me of the Mattiswald at Ronja the Robber's Daughter. When we started hiking, the mountain peaks were still sticking out of the fog. The first highlight was the Falkenstein Castle. It was easily accessible via stairs and there were also numerous information boards to read about the history of the castle. Next we went …
