Olšina Educational Trail
The Olšina Educational Trail is a tourist route through real Šumava wetlands, peat bogs, and adjacent habitats.
A large part of the trail runs along boardwalks, but other sections require traversing natural terrain. The entire route provides interesting information about the local nature and history.
The trail is located in South Bohemia, near Český Krumlov, by the Lipno reservoir, on the edge of the Šumava Protected Landscape Area and the European Bird Protection Area of Boletice, close to Olšina Pond and the village of the same name. New paths made of acacia and fir wood have been built along the trail.
