Nature

Spending free time in nature brings visitors a lot of pleasant moments and experiences. The Společná Cidlina Region is mainly characterised by the flora of the oak-hornbeam, which in terms of development arose from original mixed oak forests that moved to Central Europe in the Ice Ages. They are moderately wet forests, with densely growing shrub growth.

The main river of the entire region is the Cidlina River. The amount of water that flows along the Cidlina, is rather small mainly thanks to the smaller amount of precipitation and relatively low forested surface at the expense of developed agriculture. Even owing to the fact that it concerns an agricultural region, the natural wonders of our region remain untouched.

Visitors to the local region should definitely visit the Bludy Nature Reserve, which is a significant area of xerophilous flora, or visit the natural monument Pamětník, which is created from a manmade wetland with extensive flora and fauna. It is also recommended to take a walk along the local nature trail Les Chlum and its surroundings, which leads to the corners of the Chlum forest, to the former sandpit with a small pond and primarily familiarises visitors with the local flora and history of this area.
