What to visit around Malá Skála
Maloskalsko is a beautiful northwestern tip of the Bohemian Paradise. The Jizera River cut the Ještěd-Kozákov ridge in two here. Here you will find nice rock towns, dolomitic rocks and the ruins of Frýdštejn Castle. The surroundings of Malá Skála are really worth a visit
Besedice rocks circuit
The most beautiful hike in the Maloskalsko region
Besedice rocks are only a small rock town, but full of interest. Apart from the rock towers and narrow manholes in the two rock labyrinths Chléviště and Kalich, there are great views of the Jizera Valley or the dolomitic Suché skály. In addition, you can easily conquer the top of Sokol (562 m above sea level) from this side. This trip is short (less than 4 kilometers), but probably the most beautiful in the Maloskalsko region. continue reading
