At Háj, woodland landscapes, traces of history and distinctive mountain meadows meet. The Vápenka limeworks are located in the woodland landscape between Háj u Loučné pod Klínovcem and Kovářská. They preserve two octagonal Rumford shaft kilns, as well as the remains of other buildings from the original complex, which was built in the mid-19th century. The limeworks were fully restored in 2019 and are now open to the public.

Nature

The Horská louka u Háje area lies in the valley of the Černá voda stream and is part of the Novodomské rašeliniště–Kovářská bird protection area. The mountain meadow features a mosaic of various mountain meadow types, including peat meadows, wet meadows with melancholy thistle, meadowsweet stands, golden oat-grass meadows and matgrass meadows. These are complemented by transitions to wet and peat spruce forests. Horská louka u Háje also protects a peat-rich mountain meadow with rare and endangered plant species.
