Tršický vodopád, Artificial waterfall in Tršice, Czech Republic

Tršický vodopád is an artificial waterfall in Tršice that forms where the castle pond overflow spills over a rocky cliff. The cascade drops roughly three meters into the Olešnice stream below.

Tršický vodopád is an artificial waterfall created by the overflow of the castle pond below Tršice Castle, where water from the Olešnice stream spills over a rock step about three metres high. The rock beneath the fall is greywacke and shale. The sources record no construction date or engineer, so the pond's origin remains undocumented.

The waterfall is an artificial feature on the Olešnice stream, formed by the overflow of the castle pond beneath Tršice Castle. Its rock face is made of greywacke and shale, and the water falls about three metres. Visitors reach it from the road that runs along the stream.

You can reach the waterfall by following the road alongside the Olešnice stream, and you will hear it before you see it. The best views are from the road or nearby paths that run close to the water.

The water flow at the waterfall shifts with the castle pond levels, creating different patterns on the rock surface as seasons change. During heavy rains it becomes quite powerful, while in drier months it can be much gentler.
