Bílá skála

Bílá skála is a white rock outcrop in the Žďárské vrchy Natural Park situated along a ridge overlooking the surrounding forest. The exposed stones display distinctive light coloring due to their migmatitic gneiss composition, making them stand out against darker geological features nearby.

This natural monument received official protection status in 1979, securing its conservation under state management. The designation recognized the importance of preserving its geological formations and ecological value for the future.

The rocky outcrop provides nesting habitat for rare birds including ravens, peregrine falcons, and tawny owls that make their homes here. Visitors notice seasonal nesting activity that shapes how people interact with the site throughout the year.

Marked hiking trails connect this site to the nearby village of Křižánky, passing through forest areas and leading to the rocky summit. Visitors should wear proper footwear and stay on established paths to protect the natural surroundings.

The rocks display an unusual light tone that creates a striking contrast with the darker stone formations throughout the surrounding ridge. This color difference comes from the particular mineral makeup of the local rock layers.
