Libský les

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Libský les (German: Liebensteiner Revier ) in the eastern Fichtelgebirge is a forest area almost completely covered with spruce forests . Originally the Liebensteiner Revier was a forest department of the Liebensteiner Forest . Only after the re-division by the Czechoslovak authorities was this forest area called Libský les .

As the Czech part of the Selb-Wunsiedler plateau , it is a flat undulating hilly landscape in 500 to 641  m nm. In terms of nature , it belongs to the Hazlovská pahorkatina (German: Haslauer Hügelland ), a sub-unit of the main geomorphological unit Smrčiny ( which goes a little further than the Fichtelgebirge ). German: Fichtelgebirge ) according to the Czech system .

geography

The Libský les extends in the north from Längenau near Selb along the state border with Germany to the south to northwest of Schirnding and extends in the east from Hazlov (German: Haslau ) to Libá (German: Liebenstein ).

North of this area is the Polenský les (German: Hirschfelder Revier), southeast of the Na Dobrošově (German: Eichichtwald).

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 .
