Hike to the Lesser-known Part of Bohemian Paradise – Drabské světničky

UPDATE! The bus is (online) full, but drop me a message if you still intend to come.
——————————————————————————
Ahoj! Let’s go Bohemian Paradise! However, not to those places already too well-known, such as Prachov rocks or Hruboskalsko, but let’s see and explore the “less discovered” part of the Paradise!

The trail is around 16 km long, we will go through rock towns, climb a few rocks, will be given a couple of amazing views, see a few ruin, abyss, and most importantly have fun while exploring the labyrinth of the rock ruins of a castle (challenging for those who feel giddy 🙂 ) Some views may really be for the brave ones (but absolutely worth it!), but no worries, you can always skip 😉
We will finish our hike at around 5 pm, and take a bus to Sobotka, (it’s a nice town with a castle of Humprecht),and the next then bus to Prague, returning back after 7pm.
Take some food for the day with you, we will have brunch while enjoying great views (there won’t really be an opportunity to buy something) 😉

Highlights of the hike
– Labyrinth of the Drabské světničky ruin
– a couple of other ruins, such as Valečov, Hynšta…
– a couple of stunning views
– small abyss
– a couple of stunning views
Check the map to see some pics 😉

The hike is around 16 km long – medium difficulty.We are not going to mountains, but rocks, so the trail doesn’t really involve high, long climbing, but certainly involves some ascending and ups and downs to the rocks

We’ll take a bus from Praha – Černý Most to Březina (with a short stopover in Hodkovice n.Mohelkou) at 8.30, start hiking approx. at 10.30.
The estimated return back to Prague is around 7:30 pm.

As the bus IS VERY OFTEN SOLD OUT on Saturdays, I strongly recommend you to buy your ticket here (you can switch it to EN):

I’m sitting at the very back (seat 45). I know you may sometimes struggle with the system, if the link doesn’t work, just go to the homepage, switch to EN, and click on “Buy Ticket” again.
Praha,Černý Most – Hodkovice n.Mohelkou,,aut.nádr. at 8.30
Alternatively, they have also offices in Prague so you can do it in person there

Meeting on Saturday at 8.15 at Praha-Černý most, platform 7. The bus leaves at 8.30.
PLEASE, DO NOT RELY ON GPS, just follow my directions. Praha-černý most is the terminus of the yellow (B) line. Finding the bus station and platform 7 may be a bit tricky, but that’s why I set the meeting time 15 prior to departure. The metro has two exits. If you arrive at the platform on your left side, you exit and on the ride side take the overpass (stairs) and then go down to the bus station. If the platform is on your right side, you exit and go down to the bus station.
Platform 7 should be here, actually behind the yellow RegioJet buses.
