The Brdy Mountains

Historical moments decided and people almost abandoned the Brdy Mountains for many decades. I their stead, rare animal and plant species settled in the middle of the forests and meadows. Eagles, lynx, crayfish and carnivorous plants thrive there. And how do you drink to your health here? With water from crystal-clear springs.

Where to?

Joachim Barrande would like this. The area he explored and made famous in the world and that now bears his name, has become a National Geological Park, the largest in the Czech Republic with an area of 4,316 square kilometres. It includes parts of the Central Bohemian Region, Pilsen Region and the Capital City of Prague.
