Mossy footpath - educational trail with posted information for your children

From the upper station of the cable car on Plány there is a very pleasant educational trail with the poetic name Mechová pěšinka. The moss trail measures only 4 kilometers and the entire route leads downhill. On this trail you will get acquainted with plants that are located in the Giant Mountains. You will recognize them by smell, search and examine. The path on a mossy path is not waiting for you, but during this trail you will learn a lot about the plants that grow in the Giant Mountains. You will search for them, examine them, sniff them, and write down everything you find out.
