The Broumov Walls are a 12 km sandstone ridge in the southern Broumov region, protecting a 650 ha national nature reserve. The summits of Božanovský Špičák (773 m) and Koruna (769 m) offer views over the Broumov Basin and the Polish border. Hiking trails wind through rocky labyrinths, gorges that once sheltered legendary outlaws, and the Mariánská Cave hides a relief of the Virgin Mary — ideal for trips combining geology and regional history.
