One time I visited my friend - zoologist, who works on this biological station on Karadah, and during this week I lived on territory of this protected reserve. I'm not climber, therefore watched this place from unbest points. Also is forbidden here to walk on most of mountains (the guardians have weapons and rights to detain you if you are haven't fit certificate :)) I hadn't, of course :)))
So, I have not so much photos but hope it can be interesting for you. |

Hello Eleana,
Fantastic landscape! Nice panorama! Maybe a bit oversaturated but very nice looking.
Definitely on my "must-visit" places :-)
Best greetings,
Michal
