Husa
summit · 449 m · Kokořínsko
A goose-shaped sandstone rock on a 449 m summit above Tuhaň — a natural monument since 1991 for its iron-crusted, mushroom-like weathering, with a marked trail directly over the top.
Husa — the Goose — is a sandstone outcrop crowning a 449 m summit in the northern Kokořínsko, named for its silhouette. The rock is a natural monument (since 1991) because of how it weathered: iron-rich crusts hardened in the sandstone and selective erosion then carved the softer stone away, leaving mushroom caps, bowls and curved reddish-brown banding that looks almost organic. A marked trail runs directly over the summit, and the top gives a fine panorama of the surrounding Roverské skály rock country.
