Pašijová draha

Pašijová draha is a nature reserve characterized by deep canyons carved by water erosion, exposing layers of sedimentary rock. The landscape displays travertine formations and calcareous deposits, with natural openings that reveal underground cavities beneath the surface.

The area received protected status in 1987 to safeguard its geological formations from the Cretaceous period. This designation ensured the preservation of the deep canyons and their distinctive natural features for scientific study.

The reserve contains multiple forest ant colonies and serves as a research site for scientists studying regional biodiversity and geological formations.

The reserve can be reached using paths that connect the surrounding villages and provide access to the protected area. Since no marked trails run through the reserve itself, visitors should use the surrounding paths and respect the boundaries of the protected zone.

The reserve contains ventaroles, natural openings that lead to underground cavities and are uncommon in this region. These geological features make the site particularly interesting for researchers studying regional biodiversity and rock formations.
