Chronicles of Narnia - Tisa Rocks. If you've seen the movie, you might recall the moment Lucy opened the wardrobe and stepped into a magical winter wonderland. That enchanting forest? It's in Tisa. While hiking around this sandstone labyrinth, you might just feel as if you're sharing the same view as Lucy and the faun. Long before the Chronicles of Narnia was filmed here, the entire area was already deemed magical. The Tisa Walls are among the most popular destinations in the National Park of Bohemian Switzerland. Immerse yourself in the tales and legends of these natural wonders, wandering pathways sculpted by nature herself. This tour is considered an Easy hiking tour with a total hiking of around 3 km.

We had an amazing tour with Alex. He was super knowledgeable and picked us up from our hotel and then we were off. We had a lovely tour that ended up being private as other members cancelled. We explored Tisa rocks had a lovely lunch and then finished off with Bastei bridge. We learnt so much about Czech culture and the area. It was good value for money with transport to and from the area which takes a couple of hours and lunch included. The length of the visit was perfect for a day trip from Prague and we got to see the countryside and national park which was amazing.
Loved every moment of this tour!
Thank you for your wonderful review! :)
Very informative and great experience. We were picked up early from the hotel and driven directly to the park. Our group was small, with only 4 guests and 2 guides. The hike to the gate was not too challenging, and there were excellent views at the top. Lunch was very tasty at a local village restaurant and included a drink and meal. The bridge was also very beautiful with excellent views. The last part of the day included hiking among the rocks which was very impressive and fun. Our tour guides, Ondrej and Casey, took great care of us and made the trip more exciting and informative by pointing out historical facts about the places we visited. Highly recommend booking this tour.
Thanks so much for this detailed review! So glad the small group size, the hike to the gate, lunch at the local restaurant, and the rock formations all made for such an impressive day, with Ondrej and Casey's historical insights adding so much. We'll pass along your thanks to them both!
