About the center
This is a small, quiet facility, located close to the peat bog of Chalupská slať near the village of Borová Lada.
The exhibit shows peatlands as a whole, enabling you to learn more about raised bogs, such as the fen of Tříjezerní slať, as well as about peatland meadows and wooded areas.
Near the centre there is a new outdoor area with a playground.
