Itinerary
We have travelled around the globe, but still we love this place and we love coming back. Mix of majestatic cliffs, pine trees, sand-covered paths, pitoresque settlements and houses, makes this place unique. We will be happy to share with you some of its less-visited gems, as we believe the best way to enjoy them is without a line of other tourists stepping on your toes.
A photogenic castle towering above valleys we will be walking through. You will have many opportunities to glance it from far and close. Most importantly, there is a good restaurant and a wonderful terrace to enjoy the meal!

Super nice hike with our guide Thomas. We were 8 girls and everything was well organized from start to finish. We crossed the rocky forest which was very impressive and stopped for lunch at a beautiful castle where we had lunch. There was something for everyone. We were all in good shape so Thomas could improvise on the running track. We would always book again through Martins Adventure as he also offers many other activities. We will come back ✌️😍. Warm greetings from Marburg from the summit pearls of Hesse
What a fantastic day out of the city. We were picked up promptly by our guide, Tomas. He was kind and thoughtful as he curated the walk for our group. He was quick to point out carvings in rocks, and told us great information on the paths he had chosen. We are of average fitness and we were able to successfully navigate small passages and steep staircases without any problems. The pace was not too fast, which meant we could take time for water breaks after tougher sections. Lunch at the castle was a great experience. I appreciated the guide’s flexibility to make this a personalized experience. If you are considering this trip, pack plenty of water and decent shoes and an attitude of adventure. There are many different landscapes and views that make this trip worthwhile. It was a great day and we are grateful to have seen parts of Czech Republic we may never have seen.
