We will start our hike in the village of Srbsko. Almost immediately we will find ourselves in a beautiful forest hiding the gurgling stream of Bubovice waterfalls. The path will lead us to the viewpoints revealing industrial scenery of Solvay´s quarry. The quarry was established in 1916 and the mining works started in 1918. During WWII the quarry was expanded and served for German military needs. We will visit the open air museum of the quarries (established in 1993) and take a ride in the museum train. Afterwards, we will continue to the village of Svatý Jan pod Skalou (Saint John under the Cliff). The cliff that rises above the village offers a picturesque view of the village itself and mountains that surround it. We will end our trip in a small brewery in Beroun.
