- Matúš Jakubis, Mariana Jakubisová
The article deals with an example of the use of the public recreational activities to make visible the contribution of foresters in solving of flood and erosion control of the landscape. On the example of historical stone dam on Račková torrent in Račková valley in the Western Tatras (Tatra National Park), is explained the importance of significant foresters activity - torrent control. Torrent control Račková, which also includes a stone dam, was designed by foresters in the years 1930-1940, has been fulfilling its flood and erosion control function for 80 years. Based on historical data and field measurements, we designed an information panel in the immediate vicinity of the often visited tourist and recreational sidewalk in Račková dolina. The panel emphasizes the important contribution of foresters in flood and erosion protection of the landscape. It also explains the history, significance and function of the existing historic stone dam, its technical and hydraulic parameters, ecological and environmental aspects etc.
