Rocky towers of the most northern part of Czech Saxon Switzerland are scattered along the romantic gorges and ridges of this extensive area, the spine of which is formed by the Kyjov Valley and the Křinice Stream. In the south this area borders with the area of Tokáň, and in the east and the south the border is formed by the road connecting Kyjov (ČSAD), Vlčí hora (ČSAD), Brtníky (ČD, ČSAD) and the settlement of Kopec. These villages and hamlets are your staring points should you wish to explore the area. In the west the area is closed off by the national border leading along the Bílý potok (White Stream) and the meeting point of the White Stream and the Křinice Stream.

Most of the towers are formed from soft sandstone (ban on climbing when wet), but in the north east you will also find rocks of very firm, hard sandstone (Martin's Tower, Plačtivé kameny/Crying Stones). The towers are not exceptionally high. The area is a part of the Elbe Sandstone Protected Landscape Area. In spring and summer rock climbing is restricted towards the end of the Kyjovské Valley and the valley of the White Stream (nests of strictly protected birds). No camping is allowed. There are phone lines in surrounding villages and during season you will also find a phone connection in the former hunting chateau of Šternberk.
