Amálino údolí

Amálino údolí is a protected nature reserve set within dense forest, characterized by steep gorges and exposed rock formations. The Zlatý Potok river winds through the valley, carving channels between the steep banks and forest floor.

In the 14th century, miners tunneled through rock to drain water from the surrounding mines. This mining activity shaped the region for centuries and left permanent marks on the land.

The valley holds traces of medieval mining work that visitors can spot while walking along the waterways. The way people use and speak about this place reflects how central the area's gold extraction heritage is to local identity.

The reserve has two marked trails of different difficulty levels for exploring the area. The easier path follows the river and suits visitors of varying fitness levels.

One tunnel within the reserve houses a seismic station that has been recording global earthquakes since 1961. Visitors might spot this hidden scientific outpost while exploring the natural landscape.
