Toulky po Brdech 1 – Makaj Tomáš (2021)

Through this book, accept an invitation to a landscape that was, until recently, accessible only to the army, foresters, experts, and a handful of the chosen. Since 2016, the Brdy region has opened up to regular visitors, and a protected landscape area has been established, currently accessible via hiking trails and a network of cycling paths. However, our wanderings are not a classic guide that would take you through this landscape in detail. They are a loose inspiration that does not strictly adhere to the borders of this relatively unknown region in the heart of Bohemia. Some places, such as Svatá Hora, represent such significant phenomena that it would be a shame not to mention them. The Central Brdy region is not a typical landscape of castles and chateaus; nevertheless, the Middle Ages are present here through interesting archaeological sites that can be found with a bit of goodwill. Central Brdy is primarily a natural oasis, even though it is mostly made up of commercial forests. However, you will find very valuable non-forest areas, representing a typical Brdy phenomenon. The nature of Brdy, combined with movement, acts as a balm for people in today's fast-paced world. We also bring you a few inspirations and several stories for the delight of the soul and body. So don't hesitate, and set off with us on...
