Blatská stezka, Educational trail in Borkovice, Czech Republic

Blatská stezka is a 5.5 km educational trail opened on 8 August 1980 in the Borkovická blata reserve, a peat bog of just under 55 ha between Vesce and Mažice. Most of the route runs on a boardwalk through pine and spruce stands, past ten original stops and eight added in 2007.

The peat bog at Borkovice developed during the ice age and was shaped by geological processes over thousands of years. The bog's layers record changes in regional climate and plant life since the ice age ended.

The trail's symbol is the round-leaved sundew, a carnivorous plant of the peat bog. Stops along the route explain the distinctive blata folk culture and the methods of peat extraction with the reclamation that followed. The trail is listed as route 3397 in the KČT directory.

The trail starts at a car park on the road between Vesce and Mažice, from where a marked path of about 500 m leads to the trailhead. The 5.5 km route takes around two hours on foot and runs mostly along a boardwalk through the forest; cyclists can use most of it. It is route no. 3397 of the KČT network.

The trail's symbol is the round-leaved sundew, a carnivorous plant growing among the bog pines. The route is listed as number 3397 in the Czech Tourist Club's trail directory, and an improved sign system with maps and arrows was installed in 2007.
