Few places in Ústecký kraj have a history as closely tied to Elbe river trade and the Czech–German border as Hřensko. Set where the Kamenice meets the Elbe, this small municipality is the principal settlement of Bohemian Switzerland, a sandstone country of cliffs, ravines and wooded slopes. The Kamenice Gorge routes, including Edmund’s Gorge and Wild Gorge, lead by boat beneath high rock walls. Above the village, Pravčická brána is Europe’s largest natural sandstone arch; the 1881 Falcon’s Nest building beside it recalls the area’s early tourist era.
