Rabštejnská Lhota: Discover Nature and Culture

Rabštejnská Lhota offers a variety of things to see and do during your stay: geological features at the Na skalách Natural Monument, the ruins of Rabštejnek Castle, and a leafy village centre with a bell tower and memorial. There are also opportunities for swimming, tennis and cycling.

Na skalách Natural Monument: Geology and Trail

The Na skalách Natural Monument is located in Rabštejnská Lhota, within the Železné hory Protected Landscape Area. It is protected for the features formed by the transgression of Cretaceous Cenomanian sandstones over Ordovician quartzites. Its geological significance therefore lies in the meeting of rocks from different geological eras. Visitors interested in how the landscape was formed will find a tangible connection with nature here.

Na skalách is accessible from the road via a walkable tourist trail that continues for more than 250 metres. Trail conditions may vary. Before your visit, check the latest information about the protected area and the trail so you can plan accordingly.

Rabštejnek Castle Ruins: Grounds and Guided Tours

The grounds of the Rabštejnek Castle ruins are open to the public year-round. Check for any safety-related restrictions before your visit, as conditions may change during repair work.

Those who would also like to see the interior can arrange a guided tour of the grounds and interior year-round by booking in advance. This is a different way to visit from simply accessing the grounds, which are open to the public. If a tour is important to your plans, arrange the booking and date in advance; arrangements may change.

Village Centre and Remembrance

A traditional bell tower stands in the leafy village centre. Nearby is a memorial to the victims of the First World War. This village centre offers two distinct points of interest: the bell tower as a traditional feature of the village’s design, and the memorial as a place of remembrance. Each will appeal to different interests, from local architectural heritage to remembrance of the war.

Swimming, Tennis and Cycling

Visitors can swim at the local multipurpose water facility. Conditions may vary by season; if swimming is an important part of your stay, check the latest information about the facility in advance.

Rabštejnská Lhota has sand tennis courts. Annual singles and doubles tournaments are held on two local courts. If you would like to plan your trip around a tournament, check the dates in advance, as specific event dates should be confirmed separately.

The 18-kilometre “Na Báru a zpět přes koňský svět” cycle loop also passes through Rabštejnská Lhota. It is rated easy and is suitable for trekking bikes. This provides a clearly described way to include the village in a cycling loop, alongside visits to places of natural and cultural interest. Route conditions may vary; include the latest information in your plans.
