Be sure to bring a flashlight, as the paths through the former quarry are 600 meters long. This unique limestone site is a much-visited spot, especially because the path is a famous bike path, making it ideal for pedestrians, rollerbladers, cyclists, and walkers.

The Great America and Little America Quarry are flooded limestone quarries. The interior of the shafts and tunnels may only be accessed on open days, but the views and walk through these quarries are spectacular.

There are several known cases of people not returning after visiting the shafts of the Great America Quarry.

Kotýz is located in the Bohemian Karst Nature Reserve. It is famous for its Bronze Age finds. According to legend, it is named after the goddess Kotos. Ascending from the west side, you will come across the Axamit Gate, a rock formation resembling a gate.

At the top of Kotýz, near one side of the rim, is the Jelinek Bridge. It is a natural bridge over a 9-meter-deep crevice. The niches in the Kotýz rocks are called elephant heads. The trail to the summit from Havlíčkův Mlýn is sure to delight every athlete and experienced hiker.

Plešivec was the site of one of the largest hill forts from the late Bronze Age. The place is associated with the legendary figure Fabian. Fabian is actually a ghost, the lord of Brda Castle and its protector.

Točník Castle, a state castle, was originally built as a small hunting lodge. Only after the Lower Žebrák Castle burned down after 1395 was a majestic castle built by Wenceslas IV. The castle was never conquered from the outside, but unfortunately, it was conquered from the inside by locals hiding from the Swedes during the Thirty Years' War. The castle is a magnet for visitors, who can enjoy wonderful walks, views, and, above all, historical tours. Two bears have been housed in an enclosure under the bridge leading to the castle. Originally, they were always at the castle, but then they were relocated, and now, after a few years, this tradition has returned to the castle. Unlike Točník, the State Žebrák Castle is already a ruin. Žebrák Castle was originally built as a guard castle on the roads to Křivoklát and Zbiroh. King Charles IV despised this castle because his firstborn son, Václav, died there. After the castle burned down and he abandoned its reconstruction, it now lies in ruins. However, the view from the tower of the surrounding area and Točník Castle opposite is beautiful. The ruined walls serve as a reminder of the castle's less than happy history.
