Shortly before Slavonice (approx. 1.7km). It used to have a strong camber that was really dangerous, but luckily that was fixed 1 year ago.

Always worth a trip. But if you are looking for peace and quiet, you should rather come by during the week, it can be quite busy on weekends.

The Moor and Peat Museum, which has won national and international awards, is unique in Europe. Among other things, it was awarded a European museum prize in Helsinki in 1991. As a complement to the Heidenreichsteiner Moor nature park, the museum aims to illustrate the formation of moors in Central Europe. The flora and fauna in these areas are presented, as is the economic use and medical importance of peat. Other sections are dedicated to nature conservation, fairy tales and legends relating to moorland landscapes. There is also a replica of a bog body, along with a description of the accidents that can become fatal in the moor.
