Geology
Short characteristics of the site:
Svratka Crystalline. Rocky outcrops on an elevation summit exposing leucocratic medium grained migmatites up to orthogneisses of the Svratka Crystalline. Migmatite body is folded and fractured. Due to frost weathering numerous meso- and microrelief features have been formed. Rock disintegration caused accumulation of blocky scree along foot of this elevation.
