Malý Rabštýn, Rock formation in Domašov nad Bystřicí, Czech Republic.
Malý Rabštýn is a rock formation that rises around 40 meters above the Bystřice River valley and consists of distinct layers of slate, sandstone, and conglomerate. The visible geological layers give the formation its characteristic appearance.
The formation is located near the Kamenné proudy natural monument, which contains geological remnants from the last Ice Age. These rock layers were formed through processes that occurred during climate shifts thousands of years ago.
The rock formation serves as a training ground for climbers who regularly practice on its faces. It has become an important gathering place for the local climbing community.
The formation is reachable via marked hiking trails that depart from nearby villages and the local railway station. Plan your visit for dry weather, as the trails and rock surfaces are safer to traverse in these conditions.
A natural spring called Zázračná studánka flows on the site and provides fresh water to hikers and climbers. This small spring offers welcome relief during longer stays in the area.
