From the main road you will be about 500m along a dirt road. After rain the road can be very muddy. Most of the year, however, we got around without any problems.Parking the car in a designated place at the edge of the property (or in the adjacent village) - we want to maintain the character of the landscape.

At the Skalky property, we strive to respect and enhance what’s already there—keeping the water in the pond clean, walking only on the mowed paths away from the flowers in the summer, and leaving the place tidy behind us. We hope you’ll share this approach so that we—and all future generations—can continue to enjoy the property.
We spend quite a bit of time at Skalky (you might see us there with rakes, tending to the greenery, etc.), though we actually live in the neighboring village. So, primarily, the place will be just for you and any locals who like to take a walk here, for example, with their dog (the property is unfenced). However, we’d love to meet you and tell you more about the history of the area or about life and travel; just send us a message and we can make arrangements.
A few practical requests:
- Choose a spot to sleep where nothing special is growing (ideally under the trees behind the shelter);
- You may build a fire in the fire pit (and make it reasonably large); firewood is usually (!) right next to the fire pit—an axe or saw might come in handy;
- Once the fire has burned out, douse it with 2–5 buckets of water (aside from safety reasons, this creates charcoal that we’ll use on the property);
- Please be courteous to anyone you encounter on the property (both locals and animals).
