Hello Discovereres!
You are cordially invited to a hiking and sightseeing trip to Kokořínsko!
Kokořínsko is a picturesque natural area just 40 km/25 miles north of Prague where you will find peculiar sandstone rock formations, beautiful lakes and villages with lovingly restored folk architecture. The area is named after its main landmark, the Kokořín castle.
We will go on a tour of the castle, hike to the rock formation Pokličky (lids) and wander in a labyrinth of corridors between sandstone blocks in Skalní město Bludiště (literally means “rock town Maze”)
To make the experience even more interesting, we will travel both ways on a retro train which used to run on Czechoslovak railways from 60’s to 90’s.
Please note:
The trip will go ahead in all weather conditions, please dress appropriately and pack a raincoat if rain is expected. Read my Cancellation Policy before booking your place(s).
