Suchomasty lies partly within the Český kras Protected Landscape Area. The Klonk National Nature Monument is located 200 to 800 metres north of the village. It is the site of the world's first internationally defined stratotype for the boundary between the Silurian and Devonian periods. Klonk is also considered a site of global significance in stratigraphic geology. The geological boundary presented at Klonk has been dated to a period of Earth's history approximately 410 to 418 million years ago.

Nature

The local wildlife is also represented by a site of particular importance: the Suchomasty-zámeček site is home to a regionally significant summer colony of the lesser horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus hipposideros). In the vicinity of Suchomasty, the Suchomasty Reservoir is a popular excursion destination; a marked hiking trail runs along its right bank.
