Treetop Walkway in Krkonoše, Czech Republic

Photos and Writing Authored by Talking Forests

We embarked on a road trip through Germany, Poland, and the Czech Republic over new years and were really excited to go see another treetop walkway. Each one is unique like the ones we have already visited in Austria, the Treetop Walk Salzkammergut and in Germany the Treetop Walk Saarschleife.

We are documenting the nine Treetop Towers that are built in Europe and are excited that Erlebnis Akademie AG announced that they will signed a lease to start building the first one in North America in Canada!

Krkonoše National Park was a beautiful place to drive through on new years eve. A remote area with rolling hills. The Treetop Tower stretches up to 45 meters tall. “The trail with a total length of over 1500 m will take you through a diverse forest, where you will find many surprises and new things to learn.” Read about the specifications more here: https://www.stezkakrkonose.cz/en/about-trail.

Walk among giant trees? We would say average in size from experience.

The website above states that they have giant trees that are about 150 years old, but we are from the West Coast of Washington State and have giant trees so the trees in this national park looked beautifully average to us.

We were surprised by the interactive story told in the bottom of this tree tower of the science of tree root systems!

As we climbed to the top of the tower, the sun was setting and looking beautiful over the snow-capped mountainside full of evergreen trees. What a beautiful scene.

Some of the interactive things here are a slide for anyone to enjoy but ask for Czech cash to pay for the ride before you go up into the tower. The other interactions are free and educational along the way. A unique bird clock was chirping at the top.

We descended into the gift shop and eatery with local foods. Overall, a great place to take your family and enjoy nature in the treetops.

We plan to continue documenting these Treetop Towers in Europe through 2020 so come back or stay tuned on our website www.talkingforests.com.
