RouteXpert Review This tour is dedicated to a visit to the rocks of Adršpach and Teplice (Adršpašsko-teplické skály), these rocks form one of the most remarkable landscapes in the Czech Republic. Skály is the Czech word for rock and this “rock city” is the largest and most whimsical in Central Europe. The rocks are located in the nature reserve in East Bohemia, against the Polish border in the region called Broumov. Due to erosion and movements of the earth's crust, the sandstone rocks have acquired the strangest shapes. Cliffs, rocks, gorges and obelisks up to 40 meters high form a fairytale landscape.
The rock towns can be reached from the towns of Adršpach and Teplice nad Metuj and are separated from each other by the Vlčí rokle (Wolf rocks). Each rock has been given its own name and some can only be reached via a ladder.
From Adršpach a hiking trail leads through the rocks, past lakes and waterfalls. The route through the Adršpašské skály starts at Lake Piskovna in Adršpach and leads deep into the valley of the river Metuje. Here you can admire the waterfall and take a boat trip on the lake hidden deep in the rocks. Well worth it!
The 4-kilometer boat trip takes about 2 hours and is also suitable for people with walking difficulties.
The walk at Adršpach itself is also easy for children and active elderly people to do, except maybe the climbing parts, but you can skip these. The trails at Teplice nad Metuj require a little more practice.
This route takes you through some towns that are also well worth a short stop, but the highlight of this tour is certainly the visit to these special rock formations, which is why I rate this route with 4 stars.

Route Collections in this region Tour Poland Slovakia and the Czech Republic
This collection of routes is based on a 3-week vacation that I rode with my partner in June 2018.
The journey goes through Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and a piece of Germany. In total there are 11 driving days, a combination of touristic tours and routes from A to B. All routes avoid the highway and go exclusively on the smaller roads, which makes it a beautiful and varied journey.
Along the way you regularly come across sights, where you can stop to look around. These vary from beautiful viewpoints, to museums and special buildings. You also visit various national nature parks along the way, such as the Tatra Mountains, the Giant Mountains, Eagle Mountains, Krkonoše and Bohemian Switzerland. Because the overnight places are often also located in these areas, you can alternate the driving days with days with wonderful hiking trips.
If you only want to ride a motorcycle, then this collection can also be done in 2 weeks (including a return trip from the Netherlands).
The routes themselves can be challenging from time to time, particularly because the quality of the road surface in Eastern Europe - especially on the small country roads - is not always good. In June 2018 all routes were on paved roads.
