Rychaltické balvany, Limestone boulders in Hukvaldy, Czech Republic.
The formation consists of three substantial limestone boulders discovered during the reconstruction works of road I/48 above the Rychaltice area.
The limestone boulders date from the Tithonian period when coral reefs covered the carbonate platform of the Baška elevation near the Silesian sedimentation space.
The site functions as an educational location with information boards explaining the geological processes that transported these limestone formations to their current position.
Visitors can access the boulders through a designated path near road I/48, where parking spaces are available for geological exploration stops.
The limestone contains distinct rock formations reaching depths of 350 meters, with lower Cretaceous rocks entering through deep fissures.
