Why GLERI chose this walk

See an unusual peat-bog landscape without a long hike.

A moment to look forward to
The boardwalk opening out onto the peat bog.
Who it suits
For a short Šumava stop: the park lists 0.5 km and about half an hour.
What to consider
Steep stairs lead to the observation tower; the boardwalk and tower have different access conditions.
