ADRŠPACH-TEPLICE ROCKS (June 2009)
text >>>

Adršpach-Teplice Rocks are an unusual set of sandstone formations in northeastern Bohemia. It can be visited in one long day. Paths lead between huge rocks popular with climbers and enter long labirynths formed by erosion of sandstone blocks. It's dark and narrow passages are very impressive. There are 2 small lakes (boat rides available on one of them). River Metuja flows through both of them, with 2 waterfalls in between. The rocks where little known untill a huge fire cleared vegetation in 1824 and paved the way for land owners to establish first trails for tourists.
