Malá Pravčická Brána

The Malá Pravčická Brána (German: Kleines Prebischtor) is a natural sandstone arch, that is about 2.3 m (7.5 ft) high and 3.3 m (11 ft) wide. It is located in Bohemian Switzerland near the red signposted main hiking route (E3 European long distance path) between Mezní Louka and Vysoká Lípa.

Its name is derived from the nearby Pravčická brána in the Winterberg area, the largest natural sandstone arch in Europe. Amongst the cave formations in Bohemian Switzerland there are a number of other Kleine Prebischtore.
