Podtrosecká údolí, Nature reserve in Český ráj, Czech Republic.
Description
Podtrosecká údolí is a nature reserve in Český ráj comprising eight ponds surrounded by sandstone cliffs. The landscape is shaped by Želejovský stream and Žehrovka River, forming a network of wetlands and meadows throughout the area.
History
This nature reserve evolved from a pond system created in the 16th century by local inhabitants for agricultural and economic purposes. The eight ponds reflect centuries of human management of the landscape to support farming and water management needs.
Culture
The sandstone cliffs near Věžák pond served as filming locations for scenes from the movie 'Jak dostat tatínka do polepšovny'. These distinctive rock formations continue to shape how visitors experience the landscape today.
Practical
Visitors can explore the reserve through marked trails that connect the different ponds and surrounding areas. A bird watching station at Rokytňák pond offers good opportunities to observe wildlife without disturbing the habitat.
Did you know?
The Vidlák Peat Bog lies between two ponds and hosts rare plant species such as marsh helleborine and round-leaved sundew. These specialized plants are difficult to spot and demonstrate the ecological value of this part of the reserve.
