The Blatenská vrchovina (German about: Plattenberger Hochland) is an almost completely covered with spruce forest and flat undulating highland in 500 to 744  m nm in the eastern Fichtelgebirge . It is a district of the geomorphological division of the Czech Republic and consists of the sub-districts Polenská vrchovina (German about: Hirschfelder Hochland) and Mokřinská vrchovina (German about: Nassengruber Hochland).

Eichichtwald , Liebensteiner Revier , Hirschfelder Revier , Gärberhau and Neuenbrand-Revier were once divisions of the Liebenstein Forest , whereas Egerer Stadtwald , Elsterwald and Danich Wald ( Bannwald  - was dissolved) were divisions of the Elster Mountains . Today these former territories are on Czech territory.

After the reallocation in the 1960s to 1980s by the Czechoslovak authorities, these departments were renamed accordingly. In terms of nature , Na Dobrošově , Libský les , Polenský les , Slatinný les , Novožďárský les , Chebský les and Halštrovský les today belong to the Blatenská vrchovina in the Hazlovská pahorkatina (German: Haslauer Hügelland), a sub-unit of the Fichtelgebirge that goes beyond the land Main geomorphological unit Smrčiny (German: Fichtelgebirge) according to the Czech system .

Geomorphological classification

geography

The Blatenská vrchovina extends north from Mühlbach bei Selb along today's border with Germany east of the Selber Forest to the south to northwest of Schirnding and extends in the east from Horní Paseky (German: Oberreuth) to southeast of Libá (German: Liebenstein).

North of this area is the Ašská vrchovina (German roughly: Ascher Bergland).

geology

Geologically , the mountain range consists essentially of granite . The history of its orogeny begins in the Precambrian about 750–800 million years ago - the mountains cover almost 20% of the earth's history , which only applies to a few of the rump mountains that still exist today . The mountain range is often interspersed with basalt cones .

mountains

The highest mountain of the Blatenská vrchovina is the Záhoř (German: Elsterberg) with 744  m nm

Localities

Places like Nový Žďár (German: Neuenbrand), Horní Paseky (German: Oberreuth), Hazlov (German: Haslau), Libá (Czech: Libštejn , German: Liebenstein) and many hamlets and wastelands are scattered in or on the Blatenská vrchovina .

The shop fountain is located on the western edge of Libský les , directly on the border with Bavaria .
