Dub nad Moravou - Kojetín
Základné informácie o trase
This landscape among Dub nad Moravou and Kojetín is characterized by rolling fields of grain with islands of greenery along the watercourses. It is a landscape that is shaped primarily by water. The main river is of course the Morava, but there are also many other rivers that flow into it in the Tovačov region. We can mention the Bečva, whose confluence with the Morava River can be found not far from Tovačov, or the Haná River, which gave the name to the whole area. Everything is crowned by the Tovačov ponds and lakes.

Tovačov Castle with the Spanila Tower
The castle with the Leaning Tower is an unmissable dominant feature of Tovačov. It attracts with its richly furnished interiors, the greatest pride of which is the replica of the staircase of the Vienna Opera. The Spanila Tower offers a breathtaking view of the surrounding lakes and ponds. According to legend, the castle was founded in the 2nd half of the 11th century as a refuge for hunters, later it served as a well-protected water fortress. The most important ruling families were the Tovačovský of Cimburk and the Pernštejn family. The complex of buildings of the forecourt, defensive ramparts and the castle park belong to the complex. The castle is shrouded in the mysterious legend of the Black Lady, who appears from time to time and looks for her children in the Black Garden. The place is a former castle cemetery and there is a crypt at a depth of about 8 m that has not been explored yet.

Tovačov Lakes
Currently, the Tovačov lakes consist of four separate areas of water: Lake Annina, Lake Troubetskoye, Lake Skašovskoye and Lake Donbas. The natural conditions of the area create favourable conditions for many plants and animals. The presence of several specially protected species of animals, seventy species of birds and over 30 species of fish have been recorded here. The lakes began to form in the 1950s as a flooded area after gravel extraction. Sport fishing is allowed on all the lakes.On the shores of Lake Annín, you will find a well-maintained beach, which the locals refer to as the Tovačov Riviera.

Tovačov Ponds
The ponds have a long history, the tradition of fish farming in the Tovačov region dates back to 1464. Today there are four ponds: the Hradecký, Křenovský, Kolečko and Náklo ponds. The largest of them is the Hradecký Pond, located north of Tovačov. The Hradecký Pond is divided into four parts by internal dykes, which you can walk along and enjoy the view of the water surface. Every year, in mid-October, the very popular ceremonial catches are held here. By the Kolečko pond and along the road to the Hradecky pond you will find old oak alleys, some oaks are more than 100 years old. The ponds are also an important ornithological site. They are a refuge for many water birds, which either nest here or use them as a refreshment stop.
Siphon in Uhřičice - Crossing of rivers

Siphon in Uhřičice - Crossing of rivers
This interesting place, which few people know about, is located on the right bank of the Morava River in the village of Uhřičice near Kojetín. The Uhřičice Siphon is a unique technical device called a shybka. This remarkable water work is probably the only one of its kind in the Czech Republic and there is supposedly only one “competitor” in the whole of Europe. The siphon solves the crossing of the Valová River with the mill embankment. It is remarkable that in this case the larger and higher stream (Boleloucký Mill weir) flows under the bottom of the smaller and lower stream (Valová River). The siphon was built more than a hundred years ago, in 1908.
Why and how Siphon was built
The mill embankment was artificially built in the past and flowed out of the Morava River near Bolelouc. It powered several mills downstream and flowed back into the Morava below Lobodice. In 1583, the millrace was extended to supply water to the Kojetín mill. The crossing of the Valová River was solved by the builders of the time by bridging the Valová River with a wooden channel (the so-called vantrokes) 10.5 metres wide. In the 1880s the wooden channel was replaced by an iron one. However, a major drawback was that there was only a 1.3 m gap between the bottom of the Valová River and the riverbed, which was a problem in the event of a higher water flow.
For these reasons, a modification of the Valová River was proposed to prevent flooding even at high water levels. Therefore, the mill weir with the same flow rate was diverted through two concrete tunnels under the new Valová riverbed. The construction was carried out by the construction company Pittel Brausewetter, took more than a year and cost 50,000 crowns at the time.

Biocentre Kojetín
The biocentre, located in the “Pod oborou” area, covers about 10 hectares. It is made up of a system of flow-through and non-flow-through pools (seven large pools and dozens of pools), water ditches and handling facilities. The whole complex of sensitively designed elements will allow the natural ecosystem to exist permanently. The biocentre, which has been built on the site of a wetland and waterlogged areas, serves primarily to retain water in the landscape, for vegetation and reproduction of many endangered and rare species of animals and plants and, among other things, as a polder to protect against floods.
Part of the biocentre is also accessible to tourists, who can learn about the local natural values, legends, history and present of our town on a roughly two-kilometre walk along the nature trail. The trail’s information boards are designed to provide tourists with information in an active way – they incorporate games and moving elements that allow them to test their existing knowledge or discover new things about the world of nature and life on earth. Visitors will also find rest areas along the trail, encouraging them not only to quietly observe the fascinating order of nature, but also to calm down, relax their minds and unwind.
