Water has evoked a world of emotion in mankind since time immemorial. Its elemental spirits are water nymphs and THE BLACK DESNÁ WATERFALLS THE WATERFALL ON THE BLACK STREAM sprites. The legends say that many of them have lived in the Jizera Mountains along with pixies and fairies for as long These waterfalls are admittedly less well-known, but no as anyone can remember and as such we may also come across them during our wanders “in search of water”, if we are less beautiful and last year they were declared a natural lucky.

If you occasionally head off the path to the pools, you will see how the water surges over the fl at granite stones and boulders. There are also several “stone pots” there which have been created by the abrasive action of the sand in the water. People thought, however, that this was the work of infernal creatures and their dances and that is why they are known as the “Devil’s pots”. This waterfall admittedly cannot be found at the top of the list of the biggest waterfalls in the Czech Republic, THE WATERFALLS ON THE NOVÁ VES STREAM but it is one of the biggest within the framework of the The stream which fl ows through Nová Ves also includes Jizera Mountains.
