Ostravice
The Moravian-Silesian Beskids define the setting of Ostravice — wooded slopes and narrow valley floors give the settlement a distinctly upland character. The village lies where the Ostravice River meets the Čeladenka, beneath the massif of Lysá hora, the highest mountain in the range. Much of the surrounding country belongs to the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area, a broad zone of forests, meadows and dispersed mountain settlements. Ostravice is one of the principal starting points for walks and hikes towards Lysá hora, while the local rail terminus and road connections make it an established base for exploring the southern part of the Moravian-Silesian region. Hotels and recreational facilities sit among homes, woodland and open valley land rather than in a dense town centre.

Ostravice lies where the Ostravice and Čeladenka rivers meet in the Moravian-Silesian Beskydy, with forested slopes rising toward Lysá hora, the range’s highest summit. The village sits within the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area and is a familiar starting point for mountain walks, particularly routes ascending Lysá hora. Its railway terminus, reached from Frýdlant nad Ostravicí on a line opened in 1908, reflects the settlement’s longstanding connection to this mountain valley. Hiking, cycling and winter sports shape local life across the surrounding foothills.

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.
