Visitor rules
How to behave in nature
From time to time, it is good to review the rules of behaviour – not only in the national nature reserve, but in nature in general. Follow the Ten Commandments of behaviour in nature and it will repay us with its absolute beauty!
In the entire area of the national nature reserve, it is only allowed to walk on marked hiking trails. Visiting the beech forests is only suitable for hikers, with the exception of Viničná cesta (hiking and cycling trail). The boundary of the national nature reserve is marked by two red stripes on the trees and signs with the national emblem.

Prepare well for your visit to the Jizera Mountains beech forests
Steep slopes, weather changes, root-laden ground, rain and fog – all this is the Jizera Mountains, too. You also need to think about your health, so we have some recommendations for you:
-
Do not forget to charge your phone and download the Záchranka app for emergency calls.
-
Wear sturdy hiking shoes and appropriate clothing – remember, there is no bad weather, only bad clothes!
-
Bring a small snack and drink.
