058 – Štěchovice, Slapy  
(Around the dams from Štěchovice to Živohošt')
15th November 2023

The wild forests around the dams of the Vltava Cascade are crisscrossed with narrow paths. The terrain is very challenging in places, but the reward for the effort is beautiful views of river meanders amid steep cliffs. From Drtina's lookout tower, where we climb up the steep slope from Živohošt', we can see the rounded hills of the Benešov Hills. And the famous St. John's Streams will be remembered on the hiking trail from 1889. The oldest in the world.

The film is in Czech with English subtitles
