About This Tour in Brno

A private guide, storyteller, and proud local of the Moravian Karst – that’s me! I was born just a few steps from the deep forests and mysterious caves of this beautiful region, and I’ve been exploring them since I was a child. The Moravian Karst is not only home to more than 1,100 caves, underground rivers and gorges, but also to the stories and quiet connections that most visitors never get to see. It’s wild and peaceful, dramatic and gentle – and it’s only 30 minutes from Brno (yes, that close!). I believe that to truly understand a place, you need more than facts – you need context. That’s why I don’t just guide tours. I open doors to hidden meanings, family memories, and forgotten tales. I love when people start to feel the landscape, not just see it. So whether you want to walk through mediavel castles, breathe in the scent of the cave – I’ll tailor the walk to your rhythm, your curiosity, and your sense of wonder.

Tour Itinerary

Šošůvka is a small village 2 hours

Šošůvka is a small village. The highest point is the hill Helišova skála at 613 m (2,011 ft) above sea level and it is called "roof of the Karst". Šošůvka lies on the northern border of the Moravian Karst Protected Landscape Area. Part of the Sloupsko-šošůvské jeskyně ("Sloup-Šošůvka Caves") Nature Reserve is located in the municipality.

The village of Holštejn is located in the... 4 hours

The village of Holštejn is located in the northeast of the Moravian Karst protected landscape area. Many centuries ago, a mediaeval castle stood on a limestone cliff a little way from Holštejn. Its name was derived from the German “Höhl Stein” (a hollow rock or stone), since the Hladomorna (Dungeon) Cave, which served as a castle prison, can be found beneath the castle. An access tunnel 14 metres long led to the castle. The cave itself is 17 metres high and 25 x 35 metres in size. The cave floor is covered in a great many rocks which have fallen from the ceiling, and a great many human remains, as well as armour, spurs and other metal objects, have been found in the earth between them. Holštejn Castle was, for a time, held by robber knights who threw their victims into the cave through an opening in the roof. The Dungeon is today reached through an opening made at the foot of the cliff.
