This educational trail is a marked walking route through the Bystřice River valley in the Olomouc Region, connecting two railway stations with informative stops positioned along the path. The route passes through river bends, rocky outcrops, and woodland areas that form the valley landscape.
The trail's information panels trace the history of Domašov nad Bystřicí and Hrubá Voda, including the ruins of Hluboký Castle, and explain how the valley was used economically in the past and present. The route links the two railway stations of Domašov nad Bystřicí and Hrubá Voda, following part of railway line 310 from Olomouc to Opava.
The signposted information covers local geological layers, river ecosystems, and meadow habitats that visitors can observe directly as they walk. These displays help explain how the landscape has been shaped by natural forces over time.
The trail runs 13 km from Domašov nad Bystřicí station to Hrubá Voda station, following railway line 310. It is intended mainly for walkers, with some sections partly open to cyclists. Part of the route crosses the edge of the Libavá military area and is publicly accessible only under the prescribed conditions.
The trail passes Malý Rabštýn, a rocky outcrop where conglomerate cliffs rise approximately 40 meters (130 feet) above the river and attract rock climbers. The cliff face has multiple established climbing routes with varying levels of difficulty.
