Rejvíz

This trail crosses the Rejvíz national nature reserve in the Zlatohorská Highlands, east of the town of Jeseník; this nature reserve protects the largest peat bog area in Moravia and Silesia. It has two small lakes: “Velké mechové”, which is accessible to the public, and “Malé mechové”, access to the latter being prohibited. The peat bog was formed in the postglacial era and its exceptional natural environment has been preserved thanks to the climatic conditions in this region. Besides the typical peat vegetation, there is also the original “borovice blatka” (a subspecies of the mountain pine, “Pinus rotundata”), the Carpathian birch tree, and spruce stands. Among other rare plants there grows the carnivorous round-leaved sundew, “vstavač plamatý” – a Czech species of orchid, and others. The trail runs southwest from the cottage on the western edge of the village of Rejvíz, and is 2 kilometres long. There are five information boards that provide descriptions of the most significant aspects of the nature reserve.
