Nature & Views

The Žďárské vrchy highlands are characterized by dramatic metamorphic rock formations, dense forests, and high-altitude peat bogs. This collection features the range's highest points, including the nine-towered labyrinth of Devět skal and the 822-meter Kopeček. Key landmarks include the gneiss cliffs of Drátenická skála, the frost-riven ridges of Lisovská skála, and the Velké Dářko national nature reserve. Observation points like the Rosička tower offer wide-reaching views across the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands.
