Prachov Cliffs — Attraction in okres Jičín

If you are tired of city sightseeing, take a trip from Prague to Jicin and a few kilometers before you turn left. You will get to nature reserve Prachov Rocks. There is a payed entrance cost 100 Czech Korouna which is around 5 Euro. As you enter, you can choose between 4 paths differentiated in colours, some paths will lead you through the rocks. The difference is in time you need to go through. Right by the parking is a restaurant and a gift shop. Better you get some drinks to the rocks, because when you choose the longest path it will take approximately 3 hours (with 7 months old child) and you will get very thirsty as the stairs are long and steep. For this trip is better to use good trekking or hiking shoes, backpack and outdoor clothes. Walking along the green trail is a bit more physically demanding, but the reward is beautiful views of the rocks and the countryside. This is a place that every nature lover must see...

Wow! Amazing scenery! More on that later First prices: 80Kc to park. 170Kc for family. 10Kc for a dog. 30Kc for an English map. = 290Kc for an amazing experience (just under $12USD)

We are a family with two boys (6&3) that enjoyed the day here. Luckily little guy didn't need to be carried too much as he was too busy climbing on all kinds of rocks with his brother.

Pack a lunch, head to groundzero and get walking. I definitely agree with their recommendation of going left as soon as you pay. Four trails leading in basically the same direction that break off. I recommend taking the yellow and switching to green once they meet up again.

Everything about this place was awe-inspiring. We thought oh this little canyon was beautiful but I am sure the green trail can't top it. Well it didn't top it, but it kept staying stunningly beautiful! Check out the photos to see a small taste of the beauty. 5/5 Would...

Amazing scenery!!

We mainly took the green route and a small part yellow on the end, which covers all wonderful viewpoints. A route map can be found at the start of the trail. The route brings you through some steep climbs by stairs, some amazing viewpoints over the rock formations, and beautiful walks through the forest and some narrow (shoulder-width) passages through split rocks. This full route will take you about 2 to 2,5 hours including stops to admire the scenery, take pictures, and have a small break.

Parking costs you 100Kc (€4) if you park in the designated parking area. A parking assistant wil put you to a halt on the main road and collect the parking fee. The entrance fee to the rock area is 120Kc per adult, and will be collected at a small stand near the main walking route.

Be aware that both fees must be paid in cash.
