Valašská Senice: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

The entire cadastral area of Valašská Senice lies at the southwestern tip of the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area. The surroundings are characterized by picturesque slopes with pastures and wooden houses, deep forests with sunny clearings, clear streams, and mountain ridges with wide views.

Nature

In the upper part of the municipality, on the road to the Selanka chalet, the Chladné studánky area offers a well-maintained spring that does not freeze even in winter, as well as a wooden pavilion with benches for resting. There is a small pond near the spring where wild ducks breed.

In the vicinity of Pulčín and the Hradisko slope, layered sandstone forms individual rocks, rock walls, and entire rock cities. There are also two pseudokarst caves on the northwestern slope of Hradisko.

In the vicinity, entry is legally prohibited outside marked hiking trails in the Pulčín–Hradisko Nature Reserve. A seasonally marked trail leads to the winter icefalls and is open from 1 January to 30 March.
