Best Rated Bohemian Switzerland Prague Day Trips and Tours Since 2014.

Born and raised in the Bohemian Switzerland national park area, Decin is my hometown. In 2014 I quit my corporate job and founded Northern Hikes travel agency - out of love for hiking and nature. To do a job that has sense of purpose. I have more than 20 years of experience travelling within the region. My aim is to show you that it's not just Prague what you should visit during your stay in the Czech Republic. I will get you to Czech nature :-).

I’ve always loved traveling and hiking. When I got chance to become part of  the “Northern Hikers” and to wander around Bohemian Switzerland it was both love at first sight. My new goal is to share passion for the national park Bohemian Switzerland with you and catter for the the best experience possible so you can fall in love with this sandstone region the same way as I did. You will e-meet me through our email communication :)

Woof! For more than five years I am the real director behind all of this fun. A true leader of every teambuilding. The secret Maestro behind all the restaurant food tasting. The fluffy buddy that makes everybody laugh.

Do you too love dogs? We in Northern Hikes can't help ourselves and Chew-man is well aware of that. He'll steal your snack package in a moment, so stay alert :-).

My role is not just about organization and task management; it's about being the behind-the-scenes force that supports the magic of exploring České Švýcarsko National Park. I'm passionate about nature and thrilled to help others discover its beauty.

Fifteen years ago, I discovered the beauty of Bohemian Switzerland through climbing. The sandstone towers scattered throughout the green forests offered sweeping views of the entire area. Lately, I have been exploring the region on foot, uncovering its hidden corners. I would love for you to join me on this adventurous exploration of this unique place. Meet me online to plan your trip according to your wishes and needs.

I was also born in the Decin - town known as "the gate to the Bohemian Switzerland". Having 15 years of experience in travel industry on cruise ships all around the world, I always wanted to come back one day. Now I am back tour guiding in my home region to show you the best scenic sites, rock formations, deep gorges and scenic viewpoints all around the national park.

I grew up in an ordinary town between Prague and national park so since I was little, I tried to escape to nature every time I could. I have always loved rocks and hills and in Bohemian Switzerland I have found paradise. Spending much time outdoors, my passion gradually converted into a work of a tour guide so I can show you places familiar to me and yet unknown to you. I also love to climb and as this national park is the area where rock climbing in the Czech Republic started, it is  a place which attracts me like a steel to magnet.

My hometown Varnsdorf is located just half an hour from the national park. Since my childhood I fell in love with maps, nature and history. This combination showed me the way of my life - geography and travelling. Although I often travel abroad, I always wonder how the national park, just in my backyard, is stunning. Let´s explore the kingdom of silence, wilderness and phantasy.

I love working as a tour guide because it is everything I enjoy: hiking, meeting new people, sharing knowledge, speaking foreign languages, driving and above all, making people happy. I have experience as a scout troop leader, as a teacher, and as a parent, who likes to explore the beauty of the Czech Republic with my family. We all adore the Bohemian Switzerland national park because of its diversity and it is always a uniquely fun experience.

Born in Prague but raised in the mountains of northern Bohemia, this ignited my love for nature.  I continued then to study natural sciences though I love both earth and sky.  Therefore I had worked for over 24 years as cabin chief for an international airline company. Joining Northern Hikes is currently the ideal combination of where I can unite all the elements I enjoy: nature, mountains and people and share my knowledge on the area. 

Hi, I'm Michal, a nature lover and adventurous tour guide. I grew up exploring the Central Bohemian Highlands and have dabbled in various roles - from psychology to management. Off duty, I enjoy balancing acts, foot-tennis, and a good tune. Life to me is a constant journey of learning, summed up in my mantra: "Living simply isn't always simple." Ready for a memorable tour in the national park? Let's go together!

Born in Děčín, the gateway to Bohemian Switzerland National Park, I moved to Prague at 18 for my studies and stayed there for 15 years. Eventually, the hustle of city life led me back to my roots. I devote my free time to the great outdoors—hiking, biking, and skiing across the sandstone mountains. My passion for nature and my homeland inspired me to join Northern Hikes, where I enjoy sharing its beauty with others.

From steering buses and journeying around the world to leading excursions in Bohemian-Saxon Switzerland, my career path has always been about fulfillment. I ventured abroad for more than five years, only to return home to my dream job. Nature matters deeply to me, as does fostering new friendships, sharing enriching experiences, and above all, delivering excellent service that guests will remember fondly.

I love mountains and rocks, I grew up among them and spent a lot of time climbing or hiking in Europe and Altai. I used to be a geologist, a teacher and a climbing instructor, and I will gladly share with you everything I know about our nature and history and also beautiful and joyful days in our Sandstone Wonderland!

I love being a tour guide because it allows me to do what I enjoy most: exploring the outdoors, meeting new people and speaking foreign languages. As both a scout troop instructor and a ski instructor, I am experienced in leading groups and providing engaging experiences. Having studied forestry, I have a deep appreciation for nature and a passion for sharing its wonders with others. My goal is to ensure every tour is an enjoyable and memorable experience for everyone involved.

Mountains, travel, nature, sport, motion. Thanks to working at Northern Hikes, these aren't just words—they're the reality I'm fortunate to experience. Born in Nový Bor, a town very close to the National Park, I've left my hometown several times to travel and work abroad. I've lived in many countries, but I've always been eager to return to Northern Bohemia. Now, I'm ready to show you the wonders of my backyard...
