You can reach Macoch from two sides, go up to the parking lot and walk about 1 km, or go down to the parking lot, walk about 2 km and take the cable car up. The second option is a bigger experience, we didn't wait in line anywhere, the walk to the cable car was pleasant and you got moving. I recommend visiting both viewpoints, from the bottom you can see the very bottom of Macocha. There are fewer people during the week.

Up here you stand over a huge cave and look into the stepmother's gorge

In the cave (Punkva cave) there is a view upwards.
Worth seeing.
We stayed in the Chata Macocha, simple but okay.
