Tajvan, Lake island in Horní Planá, Czech Republic.

Tajvan is a forested lake island in the Lipno Reservoir that rises approximately 737 meters above sea level. The island is covered with mixed pine and birch woodlands that create a natural habitat for wildlife found throughout the reservoir area.

The island was named by local fishermen who gave it a designation connected to a distinctive individual from the area. This naming reflects the strong link between the island and fishing activities that were long practiced in this region.

The forested landscape of the island represents the natural heritage of South Bohemia, where outdoor activities connect visitors with regional traditions.

The island can be viewed from the shores of the reservoir and offers views across the water and surrounding landscape. Visitors should expect uneven terrain and bring appropriate gear for exploring the forested areas.

The island is the largest in the reservoir and offers rare opportunities to observe waterfowl and other species that live there. This undisturbed natural area attracts birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts who wish to study the local animal life.
