Prachov Rocks (Czech: Prachovské Skály) is a protected natural reserve around 5 kilometres west of Jičín in Czech Republic. Famous for its gorgeous mountains and towering rock formations, Prachov Rocks is an ideal destination for hikers, nature lovers and landscape photographers. Some people say it greatly resembles the mountains of “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim”, an action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks in 2011. For gamers of Skyrim, this is certainly a place you don’t want to miss.
