České středohoří Protected Landscape Area

The České středohoří extends over 1,235 square kilometers of volcanic formations, with numerous basalt peaks rising from the Elbe River valley.

The area formed during the Tertiary period through intense volcanic activity, creating distinctive geological structures that have shaped the current landscape.

The region maintains traditional wine production practices around Litoměřice, continuing centuries of viticulture heritage in the volcanic soils.

The protected area features an extensive network of marked hiking trails, connecting various geological formations and offering multiple entry points for visitors.

The region contains rare plant species adapted to specific microclimates created by the combination of volcanic soil and varying elevations.
