036 - Central Bohemian Uplands 2b (Exploring Land of the Castles) 1. 6. 2019
Ruins of medieval castles stand on the basalt peaks of the České středohoří as an eagle nests. We conquered Wostrey, Koálov, Skalka, Oltářík,
Chlum and Hradiany. There was little left of the castles, but the prospects from the peaks are breathtaking and worth the effort. The magical Land of the
Castles extends all around us.
