Světlík

Světlík is a nature reserve in Horní Podluží featuring wetlands, meadows, and water areas that provide habitat for water birds and other wildlife. The landscape consists of open grasslands interspersed with water bodies and reed beds typical of lowland wetland ecosystems.

The site received official protected status in 1995 as part of efforts to conserve important wetlands in Northern Bohemia. This designation reflected growing recognition of the ecological importance of lowland marshes in the region.

Local residents maintain traditional Czech agricultural practices around the reserve while supporting the preservation of regional plant and animal species.

The reserve can be explored via marked trails starting from Horní Podluží village, providing access to different parts of the wetland. The best visiting conditions occur during warmer months when bird activity is highest and paths are easier to walk.

The area is fed by natural springs that supply fresh water throughout the wetland and sustain the ecosystem. These underground springs are essential to maintaining water quality and supporting the diverse plant life of the reserve.
