Krkonose/Karkonosze, Transboundary biosphere reserve between Czech Republic and Poland.
The Krkonose/Karkonosze reserve spans across 55.76 square kilometers of forests, alpine meadows, and peat bogs at elevations reaching 1,602 meters above sea level.
The area received UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status in 2002, marking a milestone in cross-border environmental protection between Poland and the Czech Republic.
Mountain villages throughout the reserve maintain traditional architectural styles and local customs that represent centuries of regional development in the Sudetes region.
Visitors can access 112 kilometers of marked walking paths and multiple ski facilities, with entry points from cities like Karpacz and Jelenia Góra.
The reserve contains rare peat bog ecosystems that support specialized plant species and provide natural water retention for the surrounding mountain landscape.
