Krasna: Lysá hora
Lysá hora crowns a summit ridge in the Moravian-Silesian Beskids, and its position has made it the region’s most recognisable high point. At 1,323 metres, it is the highest mountain in the range and rises above the Beskid foothills around Krásná. The massif is largely forested, with walking routes converging on the summit from several settlements. A Czech Hydrometeorological Institute station stands at the top, underlining the mountain’s importance for long-term observation. For people across the wider Ostrava area, Lysá hora is a lasting symbol of the Beskids and one of the Czech mountains’ best-known hiking destinations. Its summit facilities and wooded slopes give the mountain a distinctly lived-in character rather than the feel of remote wilderness.

Few places in the Moravian-Silesian Region have a history as closely tied to Wallachian mountain settlement as Krásná. Spread across the foothills of the Moravian-Silesian Beskids, the municipality lies near the Morávka valley beneath the broad massif of Lysá hora, the range’s highest peak. Meadows, forest tracks and scattered farmsteads give the area a firmly rural character, while the surrounding Beskydy Protected Landscape Area protects a large mountain region shaped by grazing and forestry. Krásná suits travellers seeking local routes into the ridges rather than an urban stop. Browse additional webcams from the Moravian-Silesian Beskids to extend your view of Krásná’s mountain country.

Moravian-Silesian Region combines an industrial legacy with mountain terrain in a way that reflects its position between the historic lands of Moravia and Silesia on Czechia’s northeastern frontier. Ostrava, its largest city, developed around coal mining and ironmaking; the former Vítkovice ironworks, now the Dolní Vítkovice cultural complex, remain a defining reminder of that era. Beyond the urban basin, the Beskydy range rises in the southeast, while the Oder has its source in the Oderské vrchy. Opava adds another thread of Silesian identity through its historic centre and cultural life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of the Moravian-Silesian Region.

The terrain of Czechia ranges from fertile lowlands in southern Moravia to mountain ridges along the northern frontier, giving this Central European country a distinctly varied geography. The Vltava runs through Prague before joining the Elbe, while the Krkonoše form part of the border with Poland and include Sněžka, Czechia’s highest mountain. Prague’s historic centre, with Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, reflects the city’s long role as a political and cultural centre. Beyond the capital, Bohemia is known for spa towns and brewing, and Moravia for wine-growing traditions.
