Just a few years ago, the area around Hřensko was one of those places that most visitors associated with deep forests, sandstone cliffs and romantic footpaths. However, the summer of 2022 changed that perception. The landscape here has, however, changed dramatically in recent years. The fire in the summer of 2022 further accelerated this transformation, affecting approximately 1,300 hectares of forest in the national park and its surroundings. While the first months after the fire were marked by ensuring safety and eliminating the consequences, today the park is looking ahead.
