Záhuby can be explored through its rural local history and the natural features of Křižánky. The Křižánky nature monument covers 48.34 hectares and lies at an altitude of 290 to 345 metres above sea level. More than 98 percent of the nature monument is covered by forest; its most valuable area is a wet forest meadow. The forest wetlands of Křižánky retain water when there is excess water and release it again when water is scarce. In spring, thousands of snowdrops bloom there. The wetlands are home to alpine newts, common frogs and grass snakes. The protected area of Křižánky also includes the source area of the Záhubka stream.
