The Surroundings
Parkhotel Skalní město is situated right in the middle of the beautiful Czech Paradise, part of which are sandstone rock columns – the Prachov Rocks. The best known regional landmarks are visible from here (for example, the ruins of Trosky Castle, Velíš, Kumburk and Bradlec, Kozákov Hill, Tábor and Zebín), and it’s only a 10-minute walk to reach the imposing rocks themselves.

Sports Activities
|
We offer great conditions for seasonal cycle touring (new cycle path markings),
Rock climbing (a climbing guide can be arranged through reception); all-year walking trips (following perfectly marked Czech Hiking Club paths), car touring and prepared routes for individual guests in organised groups.
In the winter season there is a simple ski run with lift 12km away, with more extensive downhill ski runs about 45 km away. A winter stadium with ice rink, a fitness centre, massage and traditional spa can be found in Jičín.

For our guests we can organise horse riding, sightseeing flights and hire of tennis courts in Jičín. Or you can go swimming in the nearby Jinolice lakes (about 1.5 km) or in the “Pelíšek” forest swimming pool (1 km). The sports centre in Jičín
(in Hotel START) with its new Aquapark is a great place to spend a day in winter or during poor weather.
