Ruins of Castle Valečov is a typical example of the ruins in the Boheamian Paradise. Local sandstone rocks on which the castle thrones were perfectly utlilised here. You can enjoy here a walk through the tunnels built directly in the sandstone massif. Except for the castle itself, nearby Valečov are rock rooms, where so called rock-people had been living for a long time before they were forcibly displaced. Valečov Castle is definitely one of the biggest attractions in Příhrazské skály („rocks“).
