Travný, Nature reserve in Moravian-Silesian Region, Czech Republic.

Travný is a nature reserve on the western slope of a mountain in the Moravian-Silesian region and spreads across a forested area with varying elevations. The terrain consists of dense beech forests, wild herbs, and different soil types distributed across the slope.

The steep slopes kept the forest untouched for centuries until logging of "overmature stands" began in 1963. Doctors Petr and Josef Nohel proposed a reserve that year, but approval stalled; after the 1978–79 frost and pollution damage, authorities abandoned the plan in 1983. Protection came only in 2000.

The place takes its name from the mountain on whose western slope it sits, and this name runs deep in local identity. People use the trails here for hiking and nature watching, with the old beech forests leaving a strong impression on visitors.

The reserve covers the steep western slope from the Mohelnice stream up to the 1,204 m summit of Travný, with a rise of up to 673 m. Only a blue-marked hiking trail passes its north-eastern edge; the rest of the terrain has no paths and is hard to access.

The reserve covers a drop of up to 673 m from the summit of Travný (1,204 m) down to the Mohelnice stream, one of the largest elevation ranges among small protected areas in the Czech Republic. The blue-marked hiking trail only skirts its northeastern edge.
