    Broumovské Walls Circuit: Hvězda - Eagle's Nest - Mushrooms - Above Slavným - Kovářova ravine - Hvězda

    This trip is only 12 kilometers but offers a number of interesting places, views, and experiences. It passes through very varied terrain. You will weave along paths between rocks named after their shapes, your breath will be taken away by views into the valley or rocky ravines, you will walk along a comfortable forest path and encounter mushroom-shaped rocks, enter mysterious ravines and valleys with waterfalls, caves and lush green cover of many types of mosses, grasses and ferns.

    The start and finish point is Hvězda with a pilgrimage chapel by Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer and a wooden chalet of the same name built in the Swiss style. The whole trip can be completed within its opening hours, so you can refresh both before and after the walk.

    Public transport

    A seasonal weekend bus goes to Hvězda.

    If you decide to use public transport, you have two options. Hvězda is accessible from the Křinice stop, final stop, or Hlavňov, store. In both cases, you will climb about 1.5 kilometers uphill (approx. 50 minutes). Add 3 km to the total length of the trip.

    Directions

    You can reach Hvězda by car from the village of Hlavňov (Police nad Metují).

    Parking

    Near the Hvězda chalet and the pilgrimage church of Our Lady of the Snow there is a free public parking lot (valid in 2020). The parking lot has limited capacity, so it is necessary to arrive early in the season. The parking lot also includes a bus stop.
