Vodopády Satiny

Vodopády Satiny is a protected natural monument in the Moravian-Silesian Beskids, featuring a succession of small cascading waterfalls. The water flows through a gorge that stretches about one kilometer, carving out deep pools as it moves across the rocky terrain.

The area received official protection status in 2006 when local authorities designated it as a natural monument. Before this recognition, the gorge served as an informal destination for visitors exploring the region.

The waterfalls and surrounding valley have served as a recreational destination for local residents since the 19th century.

The site is accessible via multiple marked hiking trails that take between 90 minutes and two hours to walk. The paths wind through forest and follow the stream valley, so sturdy footwear and caution on damp ground are recommended.

The upper stream channels of Satina represent one of the longest examples of naturally carved rock channels in the Moravian mountains. Hikers will notice these worn grooves in the bedrock, which resemble natural steps and reveal the age of water erosion in this valley.
