About Český les

Český les (Upper Palatine Forest) protects the most valuable parts of the forested mountain range along the Bavarian border. The area features pristine forests that grew undisturbed during decades of Iron Curtain isolation, creating a unique ecological corridor known as the European Green Belt.
