Chrustenice: Nature Park and Mining History

The nearby Přírodní park Povodí Kačáku is shaped by the Loděnický potok, also known as Kačák, and provides a habitat for numerous rare animals and protected plants. Chrustenice are considered an ideal starting point for excursions into Český kras and Křivoklátsko. In the wider regional setting of Český kras, limestone cliffs, open deciduous forests, steppes and the canyon-like valley of the Berounka alternate.
