Hornopožárský les, Nature park in Krhanice, Czech Republic

The woodland area extends along the right bank of the Sazava River, featuring granite boulders and numerous hiking paths through oak and beech forests.

In 2002, Hornopožárský les received official designation as a natural park, following the implementation of Czech nature protection legislation established in 1992.

The area includes the Horni Pozary hunting lodge, constructed at the request of Archduke Ferdinand d'Este who maintained a connection to these forests.

Visitors can access the park from Jilove u Prahy or Kamenice, with marked trails connecting to the Prague-Vienna cycling route through the forest.

At Knezi Mountain, large granite boulders exhibit natural bowl-shaped depressions formed through erosion, with the largest boulder resembling a puffball mushroom.
