Krohberg is a mountain summit in North Bohemia that can be reached by marked trails from different directions and offers open views across the northern landscape. The routes wind through varying elevations and reveal the layered composition of the ridge.

The ridge formed during the Tertiary period through geological processes that shaped its current appearance. The sandstone and basalt layers visible today reflect ancient crustal shifts in this part of northern Europe.

The name comes from local traditions and reflects the area's place in regional geography. It draws visitors and hikers who come to experience the ridge and its surroundings throughout the year.

Several marked trails approach the summit from different starting points, with the eastern route offering the most gradual climb for those with less hiking experience. The best times to visit are spring through autumn, when trail conditions are most favorable.

In certain areas on the south-facing slope, basalt layers meet sandstone formations directly, creating a distinctive geological pattern in the rock wall. Many visitors overlook this striking contrast until they examine the cliff more closely during their hike.
