Jezerní slať

Jezerní slať

Visit one of the coldest places in the Czech Republic.

Jezerní slať is a raised bog between Horská Kvilda and Kvilda, which is partially accessible via a wooden footbridge. For a better overview of the landscape, we recommend climbing the two-storey observation tower, which stands on the edge of the bog and is completely hidden by old trees.

Jezerní slať belongs to the large complexes of peat bogs in the Czech Republic, as it is one of the largest peat bogs in the Šumava with its total area of ​​around 190 ha.

Do you know that...

...is this one of the coldest places in the Czech Republic? Even in the summer months the temperature here drops to freezing. Thanks to this climate, some cold-loving plant species grow here, such as sedge, dwarf birch, etc.
