Bažantnice v Satalicích, Natural monument in Satalice, Czech Republic
Description
The Satalice Pheasantry is a protected forest area spanning about 16 hectares at elevations between 265 and 275 meters. The land contains many old oak and lime trees connected by a network of walking paths.
History
The forest area was created in 1780 by the owners of Vinoř Castle as part of their Baroque landscape design and was enclosed by a stone wall. This structure has shaped the pheasantry and preserved it to the present day.
Culture
The name comes from the pheasant breeding grounds that once served hunting parties from the nearby castle. Today, visitors can walk the same paths that were used during those historical hunting expeditions.
Practical
A walking trail of about 3.5 kilometers winds through the pheasantry and ends near the Satalická obora bus stop, making it easy for visitors to arrive and leave. The area is accessible year-round, though sturdy footwear is helpful during wet weather.
Did you know?
Several oak trees here have trunk circumferences exceeding 4 meters and support rare forest beetle species. These ancient trees also host about 250 butterfly species, making the area an important habitat for insects.
