Characteristics of the Moravskoslezský Region
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MORAVSKOSLEZSKÝ REGION The Moravskoslezský Region is very diverse from geographical point of view. From the west it is bound by the massif of the Hrubý Jeseník Mountain Range with the highest peak of the Region and the entire Moravia, the Praděd (1 491 m). The mountains gradually pass to the Nízký Jeseník rolling foothills and the Odra Hills (Oderské vrchy). Central part of the Region is characteristic by densely populated lowland territory of the Opava lowlands (Opavská nížina), the Ostrava basin (Ostravská pánev) and the Moravian gateway (Moravská brána). Towards the southeast, the landscape again gains a mountainous character and culminates by the Beskydy Mountains – that are called the Moravian-Silesian Beskydy Mountains (Moravskoslezské Beskydy) at the border with Slovakia – topping out at Lysá hora (1 323 m) and the Silesian Beskydy Mountains (Slezské Beskydy) on the border with Poland. The Region lies in the northeast of the Czech Republic being one of its most marginal parts. In the north and in the east it borders with Polish voivodeships (the Silesian and Opole voivodeships), in the southeast with the Žilina Region of Slovakia. Within the regional arrangement of the CR it is lined by the Olomoucký Region and in the south it touches the Zlínský Region. Since the Region creates the state borders, it can effectively co-operate in the area of output, development of infrastructure, protection of the environment, cultural and education activity and, most of all, in tourism. For this purpose, 4 euroregions exist on the territory of the Region now: Beskydy, Praděd, Silesia and Těšínské Slezsko. -
