Jizerka

The hamlet of Jizerka is located at the Malá Jizerská Louka nature reserve in the middle of the Jizera Mountains. Around 30 buildings remain in contact with civilisation through a maintained mountain road. The plateau is a great place for cycling, cross-country skiing and walking through a landscape of forests, bogs, rocks and mountain streams.
