Bobří soutěska

Bobří Gorge is a narrow canyon in the Czech Republic carved by a stream that drops over waterfalls between high rock faces. The valley sides are thick with forest, creating a enclosed landscape where water and stone dominate the view.

The gorge received protected status in 1968 when regional authorities recognized its geological and ecological value. This designation has preserved the site from major development and allowed natural processes to continue with minimal interruption.

Local researchers study the geological formations and document the presence of alpine roses, water ouzels, and mountain wagtails in their natural environment.

Access is from Verneřice via marked hiking trails that cross the stream on wooden bridges and well-kept paths. The site is easiest to visit during warmer months when the ground is dry and stable.

The gorge creates a temperature effect where cold-adapted and warmth-loving plants grow within meters of each other due to the shadowed canyon walls. This unusual mix makes it a compact spot to observe how different species thrive side by side in extreme microclimates.
