Educational trail through the Waterworks Forest in Svitavy

Do you like nature and waterfowl? In the Water Forest you will discover the magic of nature and maybe even meet a waterman. The centuries-old Waterworks Forest will surprise you with its groupings that will tune you into a rather woodland world. The forest has been closed for decades and therefore a truly unspoilt nature could be created here, a short distance from the bustling city. Moving through the soggy and muddy forest, wooden walkways and gravel paths, bridges and footbridges will guide the visitor safely through all sections. In particular, the Kneipp Trail, designed to massage the feet by walking in the water on pebbles of different sizes, is a pleasant diversion for visitors, especially in summer.

Those who want to learn more will be interested in the information boards with descriptions of local life. You will also find information about the challenging life of watermen and if you are lucky you will meet a waterman. I'm sure he'll be happy if you and your children can cheer him up in his difficult life.
