Čičov, Natural rock formation and steppe reserve in Libčeves, Czech Republic.
Čičov reserve encompasses 7.2 hectares of land featuring a bare basalt hill that rises to an elevation of 476 meters above sea level.
The reserve received its protected status on May 23, 1951, establishing regulations to safeguard its geological formations and plant species from mining activities.
This natural area functions as an educational site where researchers study the rare aragonite crystals found within the basalt rock formations.
Visitors can reach the reserve by taking a 300-meter walk from the Libčeves-Hořenec bus stop, following the western path from Hořenec village.
The southern slopes support large populations of Czech meadow pasque flowers alongside Danish milk-vetch and various thermophilic grass species.
