Why visit
A short peat-bog walk in Šumava National Park ending at a quiet moorland pool and viewing platform. Chalupská slať preserves a characteristic Šumava peatland landscape shaped by waterlogged soils, cool climate and long-term conservation. It is included because it adds a distinctive experience to a realistic Svinná Lada or regional itinerary rather than acting as a filler stop.
What you will see
- Wooden peat-bog boardwalk.
- Moorland pool.
- Šumava wetland landscape.
