• A protected nature reserve, so stay on the paths and leave rocks and fossils where they are
• Prokopské jezírko quarry lake sits under sheer limestone walls and is the valley's best-known spot
• Nature trail to Butovice hillfort passes the site of a Slavic-era fortified settlement on the hill above the valley

Prokop Valley is a nature reserve of wooded slopes, limestone cliffs and old quarries on the city's southwest edge. Paths follow the Prokopský stream past a small, cliff-ringed quarry lake (Prokopské jezírko), and small caves show in the hillsides.

The rock layers here are famous for fossils. A marked nature trail leads to the Butovice hillfort, and the Hlubočepy railway viaducts span the lower valley.
