Břestecká skála, Protected sandstone formation in Břestek, Czech Republic.

Břestecká skála is a sandstone formation in the Chřiby mountain range featuring three main peaks that create a distinctive ridge structure. The site contains multiple climbing routes across the rock faces and is surrounded by forest.

The sandstone rocks formed approximately 65 million years ago during the paleocene period when this region was different geologically. The site received protected status as a natural monument in 2002 by local authorities.

The area draws climbers who value diverse routes and serves as an important climbing destination in the Moravian region. Visitors come here to connect with natural rock formations and experience the outdoor climbing culture.

The site is reached by a roughly 400-meter walk along the red hiking trail starting from the parking area where the red and green routes meet. The path is straightforward and accessible for visitors of different abilities.

The rock formations are surrounded by native oak-hornbeam forests and Scots pine populations that create a diverse woodland ecosystem. This combination of exposed rock and forest is relatively uncommon in the area.
