The Jiraska quarry is suitable for swimming, but be aware the water is cold and the banks consist of sharp rocks, so increased caution is advised.
From Cholín, take road no. 102 towards Obory. Approximately 500m past Žebrák, turn sharply right at a larger crossroads, then after about 50m, turn onto a field path. This path leads to the forest edge where the quarries are located.
⚠️ There is no tourist mark leading directly to Jiraska and Špic quarries. A yellow tourist mark from Nečín to Žebrák passes about 50m from the Vančátka quarry.
Entry to the quarries is free of charge.
Typically, 1.0 hour is required to explore the area.
The quarries are managed by Obec Nečín.
