    Hiking

    The Pravcicka Gate is located in Bohemian Switzerland.

    This slender rock formation is the largest natural sandstone rock bridge in Europe.

    With a span of 26.5 meters, a clear height of 16 meters, a maximum width of eight meters, and an archway thickness of three meters, it is one of the most outstanding natural monuments in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains.

    The Great Gate was first mentioned in border documents from 1410 and 1451.

    The hiking route is highly recommended.

    The parking lot costs €8.
