Žákova hora, Mountain summit in Žďárské vrchy, Czech Republic
Žákova hora reaches an elevation of 810 meters and features dense forest slopes within the boundaries of a national nature reserve.
The national nature reserve received official protection status on December 31, 1933, with specific regulations established by the Ministry of Culture in 1954.
Local legends tell of monastery students who disappeared on the mountain slopes, which led to the naming of this geographical formation.
Visitors can access the summit through marked hiking trails, including a red trail from Cikháj village and a green trail from Herálec.
The mountain stands on the main European watershed between the North Sea and Black Sea, with an artificial canal connecting the Svratka River nearby.
