Devil's Ass rock formation in Czech Canada

The funniest boulder in Czech Canada - every hiker wants to have a picture with this unique piece of granite. When you see it with your own eyes, you'll know it simply can't have any other name.

One of the rock formations in the forests around Zvůle Pond is a boulder with a curious shape. The Devil's Ass is considered the most famous and characteristic rock formation of the Czech Canada Nature Park.

We recommend combining the walk to the boulder with a visit to the nearby lookout tower U Jakuba, which is situated in the amusement and educational forest park with a labyrinth. Children will be delighted. From here, one of the two educational trails aptly named "To the Devil's Ass" will lead you to the curious boulder. The trail will also take you past a charming cascade of ponds or game preserve.

The Třeboň Region

The Třeboň Region is a magical place, and one of the most picturesque in the entire Czech Republic. Here you’ll uncover lots of idyllic countryside, which man has been painstakingly transforming since the 14th century. The result of these efforts is over 6,000 lakes, many small islands, mysterious wetlands, marshes and peat bogs, providing a habitat to countless rare species of flora and fauna. The entire region is packed with medieval fortresses and Renaissance towns, creating a special landscape, now one of UNESCO’s biosphere reserves.
