The Slavkovský les/Slavkov Forest Mts. is a beautiful area with a rich cultural heritage, where humans have been coexisting with nature since ancient times. 

One of the tasks in the Programme Statement of the Government of the Czech Republic issued in March 2023 is the preparation of documents for the designation of the Krušné hory/Ore Mountains (also known as Erzgebirge) Protected Landscape Area in cooperation with the municipalities and regions concerned. So to what extent has the commitment been fulfilled just now when the Ministry of the Environment of the Czech Republic has announced its intention to designate the Krušné hory/Ore Mts. Protected Landscape Area as a public decree, and how long is the way to really achieving this goal?

“Mess in the forest! Who has ever seen such a thing, leaving so much wood to rot uselessly!” Such words have been heard in the Šumava/Bohemian Forest Mts./Bohemian Forest Mts. for over thirty years. Fortunately, less and less frequently. Anyone who visits the Šumava/Bohemian Forest Mts. will certainly notice the striking amount of dead wood in the forests, tree rows, on the edges of fields or balks, and in abandoned meadows. Dead wood is primarily produced by nature, but in Specially Protected Areas in the Czech Republic it is also deliberately created by nature conservationists. Wood that has been cut into pieces or possibly debarked, shining in the green of the bilberry bushes, may not seem particularly conservation-oriented, yet it is worth considering why such wood is better than none at all.
