Article Ascent to Male
Ascent to the highest peak of Příhrazské rocks
The Mužský hill (463 m above sea level) is the highest point of the Příhrazské rocks. Up close, it is just an indistinct volcanic peak towering over the plateau, which is surrounded by rocky sandstone massifs. From the top there is a beautiful view of the Bohemian Paradise, the Giant Mountains, as well as the Macha region, Kokořínsko or Lužické mountains. You can get here along a cabbage hiking trail leading parallel to the road or stop at a small parking lot directly below the hill and then you are waiting for less than 300 meters to the top
Exit path to Mužský
The path from the road rises comfortably through a cherry orchard until you reach a steep staircase that leads directly to the top pyramid. Male is not only the highest point of the Příhrazské rocks but also of the Mladá Boleslav district. A little further is the second peak
