The “Pochvalovská stráň” Nature Reserve protects natural communities on marl outcrops with populations of bearberry and alpine buckthorn, as well as natural thermophilous shrubs, thermophilous oak forests, and ravine forests. Along its northern edge run a red-marked hiking trail from Rakovník via Smilovice and Dřevíč to Louny, and a green-marked hiking trail from Pnětluky to Žerotín.
