Imagine opening the sliding door of your van in the morning and the cool, aromatic air of the Czech forests flows towards you. It smells of pine needles, damp sandstone, and freedom. In Adršpach, also known as the Adršpach Rock City, you will experience camping in a dimension that no hotel room in the world can offer. While the day tourists are still sitting in their buses, you are already standing by your motorhome with a cup of coffee, looking at the distant silhouettes of the giant rock needles.

The landscape is unique: over millions of years, nature has shaped a labyrinth of sandstone here, some of which towers over 80 meters into the sky. For campers, the region is a paradise because you will find the perfect mix of active recreation and an absolute focus on nature here. The best time for camping in Adršpach is definitely late spring or early autumn. In May, everything blooms and the temperatures are ideal for hiking, while September bathes the rocks in a golden light. Be aware, however: the peak summer months of July and August can get extremely crowded. If you come during this time, you should definitely reserve your pitch in advance and enter the rock city as early as 8 AM to feel the magic without the crowds.

At night, it cools down significantly in the gorge, even in summer. A good heater in the motorhome or a high-quality sleeping bag in the tent are worth their weight in gold here. The gentle rushing of the Metuje, which meanders through the rocks, is the best lullaby you can imagine.

The absolute highlight is, of course, the hiking loop through the Adršpach Rock City. The circular trail leads you past formations with evocative names like Lovers or Mayor and Mayoress. A special tip is the emerald lake in the former sand pit right at the entrance. You cannot swim here, but the view is breathtaking. If you are arriving with a larger motorhome, you should definitely reserve your parking ticket for P1 as well as your admission online in advance. This is the only way to guarantee a pitch for long vehicles, as access to the area is now controlled via a time-slot system.

Another must is the boat trip on the upper rock lake. It is touristy, but the stories of the ferrymen are quaint and the view of the rocks from the water side is spectacular. If you prefer it a bit quieter, leave the van behind and hike via the Vlčí rokle (Wolf's Gorge) over to the Teplice Rock City. This path is more demanding and less crowded.

In terms of cuisine, you shouldn't make any compromises in the Czech Republic. Find a small hospoda near the campsite and order Smažený sýr (fried cheese) with tartar sauce. This pairs perfectly with a cold Opat beer from the nearby brewery in Broumov. There is nothing better after a long day in the rocks than sitting in front of the camper and enjoying the local cuisine.

Excursion Tip 1: The Great Sandstone Loop (15 km, approx. 5 hours)

Suitable for: Active couples | Campervan, Motorhome | Moderate

This tour combines the highlights of Adršpach with the tranquility of nature. Since the demand is high, you should definitely reserve your ticket and parking space online in advance. You start early in the morning directly from your pitch in Adršpach and head to the main entrance. After passing through the famous Gothic Gate, you first follow the green path and then turn onto the yellow marker into the Wolf's Gorge (Vlčí rokle). Here it becomes wilder and the paths narrower. The path leads you over wooden boardwalks and stairs to Teplice nad Metují. After about 10 km total distance, you reach the rock formations there, which appear much more massive and monumental than in Adršpach. For the way back, take the local train Vlak, which brings you back to the starting point in just a few minutes. This saves your calves and offers great views of the landscape. Meanwhile, you can safely park your motorhome in the central parking lot in Adršpach.

Excursion Tip 2: Baroque Treasures and Monastery Walls (28 km, approx. 45 minutes driving time)

Suitable for: Culture enthusiasts & families | Motorhome, Car | Easy

If you need a break from hiking, a short road trip to nearby Broumov is worthwhile. From Adršpach, take the L301 road, which winds picturesquely through rolling hills and small villages. After about 25 km, you reach the imposing Broumov Benedictine Monastery. The monastery is an architectural masterpiece and offers exciting tours where you can even see the famous mummies in the crypt. The parking lots around the monastery are also easily accessible for larger motorhomes. Combine the visit with a detour to the Wooden Church of the Virgin Mary, one of the oldest wooden churches in Central Europe. On the way back, you should definitely plan a stop at Křížový vrch (Cross Hill). From there, you have a fantastic view over the entire valley as far as the Giant Mountains. An ideal place for the sunset before you drive back to your campsite.

In the immediate vicinity, there are two excellent options for campers. Autocamping Bučnice is ideally located between Adršpach and Teplice and offers plenty of space under tall trees. If you like it even closer to the rocks, choose Camping Adršpach, which is just a short walk from the main entrance. Please note: Wild camping is strictly forbidden throughout the Czech Republic, and particularly in nature conservation areas like the Broumovsko region, and is strictly monitored.

Supplies are uncomplicated. In Teplice nad Metují, you will find smaller supermarkets for daily needs. For a large weekly shop, it is best to drive to Broumov or Trutnov, where there are large Kauflands and Lidls. Fresh water and waste disposal are easily possible at the mentioned campsites. A real insider tip: be sure to buy your entry tickets for the rock city online in advance. There is a quota system, and if the tickets are gone, you will be standing in front of closed gates – even as a camper living right next door.
