New Virgin Forest

How to turn a spruce field into a mixed forest and some day even a primeval forest full of life?

The New Forest is a unique project, in which, starting in 2004, Čmelák has been transforming spruce monocultures on Ještěd ridge into a mixed forest, which will some day be a new primeval forest. Tens of thousands of seedlings of beeches, firs or maples are gradually replacing some of the spruces. Nature is slowly returning. Some day, there will be a forest temple here, from which tree giants will look quietly into the valley. Such that you will hardly find in ordinary forests today.

New Virgin Forest has been evolving near Ještěd in northern Bohemia since 2004. Čmelák transforms spruce monocultures almost lifeless into a natural, balanced and diverse forest...
