Scenery & Atmosphere
The Bohemian Karst links underground caves, open limestone plateaus, dramatic cliffs, and historic villages into one continuous landscape experience.
Experience on the Trail
The trip starts at the Visitor Centre, followed by a guided visit to the Koněprusy caves, the longest cave system in Czechia. A 5 km trek leads across the Kotýz plateau to Axamitova brána, a natural limestone gate.
A short transfer brings the route to St. John under the Rock, a historic village set directly beneath high limestone cliffs. During the transfer, an optional stop in a traditional restaurant is possible.
The visit includes the Church of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist, a key spiritual landmark of the area. The day can be completed with a 5 km trek to the Solvayovy lomy, offering insight into historic limestone mining.
Important note:
The caves are accessible only on official guided tours run by the cave administration.
