Waterfalls in Modřanská rokle, Natural waterfall in Cholupice, Czech Republic.

The waterfalls in Modřanská rokle lie on Lhotský potok about 100 metres before it joins Písnický potok. The higher fall drops over a lip of loose, unconsolidated sediment; a smaller cascade about one metre high stands just above the confluence on firmer rock. The stream carries little water, so erosion of the sediment edge will continue for many years.

The territory containing this gorge came under the control of Zbraslav monastery in 1621 after being taken from the Stern von Hirschfeld family. The monastery held influence over the area for centuries afterward.

The Lhotský potok stream feeds the falls before joining the Písnický potok inside the Modřanská rokle nature monument. A marked hiking route, number 1013, runs along the confluence from Písnice through Modřany and Komořany to Zbraslav, so walkers pass the cascades on a signposted path.

The marked hiking route 1013 runs along the confluence of the Lhotský and Písnický streams, passing the waterfalls from Písnice through Modřany and Komořany to Zbraslav. The upper waterfall sits about 100 metres before the confluence, with the one-metre cascade just above the mouth of the stream.

The gorge walls display exposed rock layers from the Proterozoic age, visible as bands of greywacke running through the stone. These geological formations give the site added value for anyone curious about how the landscape was shaped over time.
