Always Book Online for an Adventure at Adršpach Rocks!

Adršpach Rocks used to experience heavy crowds and frequent traffic jams, which often harmed the natural surroundings. Thankfully, a reservation system has been introduced to tackle these issues. This system allows visitors to buy tickets and parking spots online for a specific day and time, helping to distribute the flow of visitors more evenly throughout the day and reducing traffic congestion. The area can accommodate 400 people per hour.

For those who opt for online parking, there are three different parking lots available on-site. Purchasing tickets and parking online aids in managing visitor flow and traffic. It’s advisable to buy your tickets at least one day in advance. The busiest times are between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM, while the site is open from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Therefore, planning your visit for early in the morning or later in the afternoon/evening is recommended. It’s important to note that random ticket checks will occur along the route of the Adršpach Rocks tour, so undisciplined visitors should take care.

How to buy online

Purchasing your ticket online is straightforward. You can buy an entry ticket and, if desired, a parking space on the website adrspasskeskaly.cz. While making your purchase, select the date and time for your visit to the rocks. Every online ticket and parking fee includes a unique QR code which simplifies access for both visitors in the rock area and for opening the car park gate for drivers. Occasionally, you might encounter payment issues online. Make sure to confirm with your bank that they support online transactions with two-factor authentication. When entering your information, the cardholder’s name should be input without accents. Tickets can be canceled, but only if you do so no later than 7 days before your scheduled visit. You’ll receive a voucher by email that you can use for another day, but unfortunately, refunds aren’t available.

The on-site ticket sales remain the same, but you may encounter long wait times in line. The number of tickets available for any given hour is limited, particularly during the summer months, which may result in tickets for certain hours or days being sold out. Visitors without online tickets could end up waiting several hours or may need to return the next day. You can find all the latest information (including current visitor capacity, parking details, etc.) on the website adrspasskeskaly.cz, where, as mentioned, you can also buy tickets for the rocks. Additionally, you can receive timely updates through the rock town’s Facebook page about Adršpach Rocks.

A few hints and tips that may come in handy

• • What should you do if you arrive and the rock area is already full? We suggest buying a ticket for the next hour. In the meantime, you can explore Cross Hill, Old Castle Hill, or enjoy lunch at one of the local eateries. Alternatively, visit nearby places like Teplice Rocks, Broumov Walls, or Ostaš and book a ticket for the following day.

• • During the most crowded times of the day, an increased entrance fee applies. However, fees are reduced from 8:00 to 10:00 and from 2:00 to 6:00 PM.

• • Parking spots cannot be reserved online independently from ticket purchases.

• • For groups of ten or more, there is an option for booking via the form at adrspasskeskaly.cz/groups. Tickets can be paid on-site at the information center at the rock entrance, and you can enjoy a 15% discount with advance booking. It’s especially advised to book tickets at least 30 days ahead during the summer holidays!

• • For those interested, guided tours are available from April to October in Czech, Polish, German, and English. Each guided session lasts about one hour.

• • A how long is your ticket valid? You can buy your ticket online for a specific start time, such as 8:00 AM, and you can enter the rocks within a one-hour window, for example, from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM. Once you’re inside the tour area, there is no time limit, and you can exit the rocks whenever you wish. Keep in mind, however, that once you leave the rocks, your ticket will no longer be valid.

• • Access for dogs costs 50 CZK (100 CZK during peak holiday season).
