The Besedické skály are a labyrinth of sandstone rock formations and scenic viewpoints. Their main group is Chléviště; this is where the den of the exile Václav Sadovský ze Sloupna is located.

Landscape

The renowned Husníkova vyhlídka offers views into the Jizera Valley. A yellow-marked circular trail leads through the most important areas of the Besedické skály natural landscape. The Zlatá stezka Českého ráje hiking trail also passes through Besedice.

Culture

During the Counter-Reformation, secret services of the Bohemian Brethren were held in the Svatyně Kalich. At U Kalicha, an altar with an engraved chalice and the year 1634 is located amid five rock gorges.

The chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk stands in Besedice village square. It is a brick-built chapel with a bell tower, was constructed by local neighbours, and is considered a folk monument to the local masonry and stone-cutting tradition from the second half of the 18th century.
