Skočický hrad, Nature reserve in Skočice, Czech Republic
The nature reserve spreads across two hilltops at 667 meters elevation, containing natural beech forests and mixed deciduous vegetation in the South Bohemian region.
The site received its protected status on December 1, 1985, marking a commitment to preserve the natural forest vegetation in the summit area of Hrad hill.
The reserve represents one of the last remaining natural flower beech forests in the Strakonice district, maintaining traditional Czech woodland characteristics.
Visitors can access the reserve through marked hiking paths that lead around the Hrad summit and connect to surrounding areas throughout the year.
Archaeological findings from 1940 revealed bronze artifacts indicating ancient settlements, while stone fortifications on Kolo hill demonstrate prehistoric habitation patterns.
