Údolí Plakánek, Nature reserve in Dobšín, Czech Republic

The valley extends from Kost Castle to Střehom village, featuring sandstone rock formations, dense forests, and the Klenice River flowing through its center.

Archaeological findings indicate human settlements in the valley dating back to the Stone Age, with later use as a refuge during medieval conflicts.

The Střehom Water Mill, constructed in 1516, remains operational and gained recognition through its connection to Czech fairy tale 'S čerty nejsou žerty'.

A one-kilometer nature trail with eleven informative stops guides visitors through the reserve, with access points from Kost Castle and surrounding villages.

Local stone quarries in the valley supplied materials for the construction of Kost Castle, leaving lasting marks in the sandstone landscape.
