Kaňkovy hory, Nature reserve in Seč, Czech Republic.
The reserve spreads across the main ridge of the Železné hory mountains, reaching elevations of 557 meters above sea level with steep cliffs.
The Czech Ministry of Culture established Kaňkovy hory as a protected nature reserve in 1955, leading to its division into separate conservation areas in 2016.
Scientists regularly monitor the populations of cavity-nesting birds, including stock doves and collared flycatchers, in the dense beech forests.
Visitors can access the reserve through marked trails, with a red path running along the ridge and two green paths connecting nearby villages.
The geological foundation contains ancient crystalline schists, specifically Oheb gneisses and migmatites, forming distinctive rock formations.
