Pravčická brána (Prebischtor) – Rundweg von Hřensko – hike
From Hřensko, follow the red markings and climb steadily uphill for about a kilometre, at first on a wide forest track. Further up, the surface becomes narrower and rootier: about half of the route is on paths, just under half on gravel. At the rock arch itself, steps and galleries lead around the massif, and from the viewing platforms you look out over the forests of the Böhmische Schweiz. The arch spans about 26.5 metres and is 16 metres high; for conservation reasons it must not be walked on. On the way back, the traces of the 2022 forest fire will accompany you for a while before the path descends into the Elbe valley.
