Borkovická blata

The 104-hectare reserve features peat bogs, marshes, and wetlands that form a natural habitat for more than 400 species of fungi and 50 bird species.

Peat extraction in this area began in the first half of the 19th century through manual labor and continued industrially from 1953 until 1980.

The Blatská educational trail allows visitors to learn about the region's peat mining history, local traditions, and natural heritage through informative panels.

The 6.5-kilometer nature trail takes approximately two hours to complete and remains accessible throughout the year without any entrance fee.

The reserve contains rare carnivorous plants, including bladderworts, and houses endangered dragonfly species within its transitional bog ecosystem.
