The six-day Bohemian Switzerland Ridge Trail takes hikers through dramatic rock formations, deep forests and breath-taking views — and it is now officially one of Europe’s most beautiful. The trail has been awarded the Leading Quality Trails–Best of Europe certificate, joining only 23 other exceptional routes across the continent. Radio Prague International went to see what all the fuss is about.

To receive the certificate issued by the European Hiking Federation, a trail must meet strict criteria – for example, the share of concrete paths must remain under 20%, and information boards and signage must be in at least three languages to ensure accessibility for international visitors.
