Jitka Fialová, Martina Holcová

The forest can do wonders for us. We all have our own experiences with it. It is an environment that becomes a contrast to today's hectic times full of sensations, noise, information overload. The aim of this route is to point out the importance of trees, which is mostly hidden, to offer visitors simple relaxation techniques that they can take back to their lives, to allow visitors to stop, rest and relax among the trees, to popularize scientific research concerning the importance of being in the forest on the physical psychological side of man, to communicate to visitors the importance of the arboretum and the Training forest enterprise Masaryk Forest Křtiny as its manager. The Forest Mind Route, which is the first of its kind in the Czech Republic, is appreciated by experts not only in the Czech Republic but also abroad.
