NEW IN THE GUIDE
Another 20 reasons to go.
From water under rocks to wooden villages to castles. Discover other faces of the Bohemian Paradise.
Hrad Kost
Strong castle walls, a prominent White Tower and a valley just around the corner. Kost is a good start to a day where history meets nature.
Allow around 3 h here
Věžický rybník
Sandstone meets the water surface directly here. At Věžák, the main agenda may be to simply stop and observe the landscape.
Allow around 2 h here
Besedické skály
Narrow passages, shade between rocks and views over the Jizera. Besedice is a trip for those who like to see the route between the main destinations.
Allow around 3 h here
Vesec u Sobotky
A village green, timber houses and countryside beyond the gardens. Vesec is a small stop where it pays to slow down and notice the details.
Allow around 1 h here
Valdštejnská lodžie
Wide arcades and landscape laid out with great intent. At the loggia, it is worth looking not only at the building, but also in the direction away from it.
Allow around 2 h here
Zebín
A prominent hill with a small chapel on top. Zebín offers a different view of Jičínsko than the city tower: you are standing right in the open countryside.
Allow around 2 h here
