Waterfalls Meziměstí

A significant natural attraction that can be found near Adršpach in Východní Čechy is certainly the waterfalls on the Metuje river. Visitors will find the Velký Adršpašský vodopád, which is approximately 16 metres high. Just 50 metres away, another waterfall plunges into the rock gorges. Since it is significantly smaller, reaching a height of about 4 metres, it was named the Malý Adršpašský vodopád. It provides a pleasant refreshment on a journey through the Adršpašsko-teplické skály. Above them is also the Adršpašské jezírko, where boat rides are offered.

Visitors can let themselves be carried away by the pleasant babbling of the water from the gazebo built near the signpost of the yellow tourist trail. During the summer months, the water flow in the river decreases due to the warm weather. For this reason, a sluice gate was installed above the waterfall, which can increase its flow at the request of visitors. But beware, it is not quite that simple. Visitors must know the magic spell, or rather shout the secret password Krakonoš.

However, visitors certainly will not set out to this place just for the Malý Adršpašský vodopád. It is strongly recommended to walk through the entire Adršpach rock town and admire the diverse sandstone formations that received their names from objects, people, or animals they resemble. Thus, visitors can see, for example, Milenec, Starosta a starostová, Krakonošova lenoška, and Sloní náměstí. The ruin of hrad Adršpach is also a magical place offering a wonderful view of the surrounding rocks and forests.

The Adršpašsko-teplické skály are a frequently visited place due to their magnificent scenery, popular among tourists from both the Czech Republic and abroad. The accommodation offer therefore had to be adapted to the high attractiveness of this area. Romantic chalets and cottages, timbered houses, and cosy private accommodation only complete the atmosphere of this magical place. Local entrepreneurs are also prepared for more demanding clientele. Would visitors like to set out on a wellness stay, for hiking, or simply for a relaxing stay? A better place could hardly have been chosen. Hotels and guesthouses in the vicinity of the Adršpašsko-teplické skály will certainly satisfy all requirements. Finding accommodation near the Malý Adršpašský vodopád will therefore be no problem at all. Visitors simply need to plan their holiday, pack their bags, and set off.

Waterfall in Anenské údolí – complete silence above the flowing water

In a corner of the Krkonoše, within the Anenské údolí nature reserve near the village of Skuteč, you will find an inconspicuous yet impressive waterfall on the Anenský potok stream. It measures approximately 2 metres, but despite its height, it manages to inspire with its natural beauty. It flows year-round and is an ideal spot for those seeking peace, beauty, and closeness to nature in an intimate setting.

Discover the magic of nature, gentle rustling, and the beauty of detail

At the very beginning of the valley, where the Anenský potok overcomes rock ledges, an impressive waterfall awaits you. The water falls onto stone steps, creating a cascade that accompanies the place with its natural and soothing rustling. The entire scenery directly invites you to stop, take a deep breath, and enjoy a moment of undisturbed reflection. It is a place where, thanks to the proximity of nature, you will immediately stop feeling trapped in the daily rush and reconnect with the peace that this valley offers.

Who is this place ideal for?

This natural phenomenon will be most enjoyed by lovers of silence, photographers, and anyone who can appreciate the beauty of small natural wonders. It is a great stop for hikers who want to complement their longer trip in the area with an undemanding but unforgettable experience. Access to the waterfall is very easy and the terrain is flat, so everyone can handle it easily regardless of their fitness level. However, we would like to inform pet owners that due to the nature of the site and the protection of the surrounding environment, visiting this location with dogs is not highly recommended.

Where to continue and what is worth seeing

The starting point for the trip is in the village of Skuteč or Hroubovice, from where a marked path leads through the valley to the waterfall. In the vicinity, you can stop at the kaplnka svätej Anny (Chapel of Saint Anne), explore the iron-rich spring, or continue further along forest paths to discover other quiet corners of the region.

A place where water slows the breath of time

The waterfall in Anenské údolí invites you to contemplate the flow of water and the peace of the nature reserve. It is a place where even a small detail gains meaning – come and find peace, a story in the sound of water, and a contrast to the bustle of the world.
