Bílá Strž Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The highest waterfall in the Czech part of the Šumava is located in the deep, ravine-like valley of the Bílý potok at an altitude of 940 m above sea level.
Bílá strž is the highest waterfall in Šumava, reaching a total height of 13 meters. It consists of several steps and cascades, the highest of which is 7 meters. In the river bed of the creek there are also so-called giant pots, which are dug up by flowing and swirling water. Remains of the original mountain forest, which has a primeval character, have been preserved on the slopes above the river bed. There is a viewing terrace directly above the waterfall, from which you have a wonderful view of this natural landscape. On the red hiking trail (4 km)

Černé Jezero (Black Lake)

Highlight • Lake

The Black Lake is the largest glacial lake in Bohemia. It is perfectly framed by a rock face and the forest shore with mystical peace between the mountains and is a popular stop on hiking and mountain bike tours.

Špičák Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this observation tower you have a great view over the mountains and the bike park Spicak. It costs five crowns to climb.

Downhill fans are sure to be familiar with this bike park: the trails here are not for the faint of heart. If you feel like trying out one of the trails, please inform yourself beforehand on the information boards whether the route you have chosen corresponds to your ability - and whether your bike can handle it.

Black Friday Line, Bikepark Špičák

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

Longest route in the Špičák bike park. Like everything there, more for advanced users. V.a. in the lower half strongly blocked with stones, but overall also with some fast corners and berms. Some jumps, wooden drops, but all of which can be avoided or have lighter variants. There is this one gap jump over a stream, which is not too difficult, but requires a certain speed in the approach. In the lower third, three gap jumps following one another in quick succession, but very well coordinated, which are not suitable for everyone. Not driven but also possible here.

Špičák Bike Park

Highlight • MTB Park

The Špičák bike park is the first bike park in the Czech Republic. The first freeride route was cut into the slope of the Špičák in 2007. Since then, the park has been developing steadily. It now has six routes. The IXS European Downhill Series has already visited here, which alone speaks for the quality of the routes. But it's not just experienced racers who get their money's worth; beginners can also improve their riding technique on easier routes or in the skill center.

This is what it looks like, for example:
Black Friday Line (komoot.de/highlight/2593756)
Struggle Line (komoot.de/highlight/2593757).


Opening hours from June to October:
Sunday to Thursday: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Friday and Saturday: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

June 27, 2023,2023 - Tschechien - Mountainbiketour von Železná Ruda nach Vodní nádrž Nýrsko (Trinkwassersperre)
Today other muscle groups should be challenged. That's why we hung up our hiking boots for a short time. We then switched to mountain bikes - unfortunately only with an electronic drive, as there were no other rental bikes available.
From Mark Eisenstein we drove over the pass at Špičáčské sedlo to the Black Lake. However, we quickly fled from …

We are impressed by the Bohemian Forest... endless forests, interrupted by high valleys, marshy meadows and natural streams. A special nature experience: Cerne jezero (black lake). More about this special lake... sh Highlight

Wonderful Bohemian Forest bike tour under the guidance of National Park ranger Franz Urmann. We started in Bayerisch Eisenstein over the Spicak saddle to the ice age lake "Schwarzer See". Passing the highest waterfall in the Bohemian Forest, the Bílá strž, we continued to the Nyrsco drinking water dam. After a well-groomed refreshment at the Hotel Koller, we went 8 …
