Přírodní rezervace údolí Plakánek

The basement valley, lined with picturesque rocks, is called Plakánek. It is a long, picturesque ravine, surrounded by many myths. Here, in the lee of the brightly flowering meadows, the light-footed fairies around their well Roubenka performed their reeds. The spring of water coming out of it brought sand to the surface, helping people from eye ailments. In the thick forests that surrounded the castle two miles away, a child had once been lost to a coal-burning coal-burning man. When her mother noticed that she was not in the shack or on the glade where she usually played, she wrapped her arms and broke into a heartbreak crying. She remembered how Agnes, the daughter of a bone burgrave, had strayed in the woods some time ago, had woken up in mortal anxiety all night, and had been miraculously saved. A mysterious voice called out to her, "See the bush!" She glanced back, saw a burning bush on one of the hills, then set her on her way to home. (Today, this place is called Vykeř.) And the coalman and his wife went in search, and they made their way through the woods, searched the rocks, and called their child. He was anxious, with fear that he would not be ripped off by ferocious deer that was not lacking in those times. She had excellent hiding places in rocks, caves and rocky pits where people sought refuge in times of danger. Finally, the parents descended to the bottom of the gorge and set off along the path along the stream. They paused for a moment, looking for the glade and the groups of bushes that were booming. They listened silently, unless you hear the baby's voice. The sun bent to the horizon, hid behind the ridges of the forests, and dark shadows began to fall into the valley. The valley was quiet, the forest fell silent. Suddenly they heard parents, troubled and desperate for a futile search, in the distance ahead of them in the direction of Bone Castle, a quiet baby crying. They held their breath, listened. They heard them cry again. They recognized the direction and ran to the willow group. Their child was sitting there, crying everything from crying, tired of walking, stung by hunger. The parents sighed with joy, all their hearts falling with their hearts. They pressed the child to their breasts, hurrying home with joy, promising to be guarded like an eye in their heads from today. The valley where the parents found their lost, crying child was called Plakánek. Since then, it has been attributed to Plakák that crying no longer disappears from it. She screamed the girl who had been abandoned by the treacherous dear. An unfortunate widow was crying, and she threw herself into the pond in the middle of the valley with her baby in her arms. He was drowning with him and the kid, whose crying, rising from the depths, had been heard here for years. And they wept and wailed until the whole valley trembled, unfortunate convicts who had been tortured and executed in the plaque in the shades.

The nature reserve declared in 1990 is a beautiful area with sandstone towers, ponds, wetlands, valleys, gorges, it hides many mysterious places - caves, mound graves, fortifications ... A visit in every season will bring new views of the place, nature is incredible here beautiful.

There are a lot of places that I haven't been able to go through yet, but I'm already working on it ?

Very pleasant and unpretentious, not even three kilometers long, which can be managed with a diving school, a nature trail through a magical valley from Kost Castle to the Střeholm mill.

A beautiful walk through a quiet valley, suitable for visitors with a pram. What I would welcome is the ongoing care of the trail, the piercing of the bushes that sometimes obstruct the view.

A wonderful place at the entrance to the Bohemian Paradise. A very pleasant, easy walk, which can be taken by seniors and mothers with a pram. It is not suitable for cyclists for several reasons. The road is relatively narrow and you can endanger pedestrians, it is not long, but there are plenty of attractions. The whole journey has educational boards along the entire route about the origin of the valley, the occurring fauna and flora. Some panels will also offer a small quiz, which makes the journey even more attractive for the little curious. I warmly recommend. A small bonus in the end? Here he is and now two! If you set out on a journey from Kost Castle, at the end of the journey you will discover the picturesque cottage of the actor Josef Dvořák. Its close proximity to the game park pond is literally proverbial. And if you sacrifice a few hundred more steps along the same way down, you will come across a beautiful mill on the outskirts of the village of Střehom. Yes Yes. It's him. The occurrence of Dorothy Máchalová is very probable! I wish you a wonderful experience.
