The Pohorsko protected area was first designated on 14 February 2012. It protects the critically endangered Czech subspecies of the early-flowering gentian (Gentianella praecox subsp. bohemica). The protected area covers meadows approximately 200 to 500 m south of Pohorsko, below the road from the village to a forester’s lodge.
