After passing Masaryk's path and Hlaholská vyhlídka, see A number of other beautiful places await you HERE, such as Americká sluj, Fortna or Pechova vyhlídka. Expect another stairway to await you here

The prospect of Peace

From Hlaholská vyhlídka, which we described in the first part of this trip, it is only a few tens of meters to the crossroads Nad Císařskou chodbou. Here we connect for a while to the route of the Small Circuit along Prachovské skaly, so the density of visitors is increasing here. A small walk is a turn to the beautiful viewpoint of Peace.

Descent to the American Slug

From the Míru viewpoint, it is a short distance to the U Buku crossroads, where we leave the Small Circuit and begin, still on the green, to descend into the American slut. View back to the stairs

Ascent to the Leaning Tower

After passing the American Stable, such a small circuit awaits you in the form of an ascent to the Leaning Tower and a walk through the New Gorge. A narrow staircase leads to the Leaning Tower and there is little space on the lookout itself, so there may be quite a rush

The Leaning Tower is the only viewpoint in Prachovské skaly from where you can see into the Jičín Basin

Descent from Pech's prospect

The ascent to Pechova vyhlídka is the most demanding and longest in Prachovské skaly. If you go according to our schedule, in the end you will just descend from it in the direction of a tourist cottage
