Pravcicka brana
Spanning 26m / 85ft some 21m / 68ft in the air, the Pravcicka brana is Central Europe's largest natural stone bridge. To see the bridge visitors must hike in a short distance either from Hrensko or Mezni Louka. The bridge is one of the highlights of the Bohemian Switzerland National Park (Ceske Svycarsko) and should not be missed while visiting the park. It is possible to walk over the bridge and there are railings on either side for safety. Below the bridge is a patio area with tables and chairs. The view from Pravcicka brana is spectacular, as is the view from the patio below. Nearby, down a short trail, is a smaller natural bridge called Mala Pravcicka brana.
