Travel into the heart of the Bohemian Switzerland National Park on a one-day trip from Prague. Bohemian Switzerland National Park – the youngest of the Czech Republic’s four national parks – forms a part of the larger territory of the Elbe Sandstones, which has been called Czech and Saxon Switzerland for nearly two centuries.

The story of this area started many millions of years ago when the area of today’s Bohemian Switzerland was covered by a shallow sea. Its sandy bed gave birth to a world of sandstone, rock towers, bridges and gates with the most diverse of shapes.

Discover a mystical landscape of pine forests and deep valleys, with majestic rock towers, gates, walls, ravines, rock cities, and labyrinths rising up from them, rarest of animals and remarkable plants together with our private local guide. The maximum size of this private tour is 17 guests.
