Prachov Rocks

Rock towers of Prachov Rocks

The Prachov Rocks (Czech: Prachovské skály) are a rock formation in the Czech Republic[1] approximately 5 kilometres west of Jičín, and are a protected natural reserve since 1933. Praised for their natural stone beauty, they are often compared to works of fiction; especially High Hrothgar in The Elder Scrolls Skyrim, a cold, rocky mountain with harsh conditions, and a treacherous 7,000 steps on an old staircase to the home of an ancient cult.
