A northeast hillslope of Lazura Hill, about 1.5 km north-northwest of Michalové Hills. A debris forest with silver fir and wild cherry on a basal substrate of Lazura Hill, with the partial character of an old growth forest.

The Teplá River between Bečov and Loutnový, connects the sections of the Otročínský, Pramenský and Mnichovský Creek, about 8-16 km north-northeast of Mariánské Lázně.

This protected spruce rises northwest of Marianske Lazne between "Svobody" alley  and "Smetana" alley. The spruce is estimated to be 200 years old and is a truly majestic tree - the trunk circumference is 450cm and it is 39 m tall. It first emerged from the ground around 1818 when Mariánské Lázně was first declared a public spa. In March 2017 strong wind got the better of the spruce which fell. A fallen tree remains protected, so it can still be admired where it lies.

This is a rock promontory above the Ohře River valley on the peak of Šemnické Rocks (644 m high) above the village of Šemnice.

The name comes from a distinguished visitor to the town, the Bavarian Queen Karola. This is a lookout pavilion built in 1875 on the hillside between the Forest Spring and the local cemetery (above today's car park).

A pine wood on a serpentinite base between the villages of Prameny and Mnichov.

Its beauty and serenity made this place a favourite with the Abbot Alfréd Clements of Teplá. A simple wooden bench stood here where the dignitary often used to sit. During his time as Abbot, Mariánské Lázně experienced the largest building boom of its early development (1888–1900).

An elegant one-storey tower used to stand here. It was erected in 1847 but the surrounding forests had overgrown it by 1879. Only a sign now gives any indication the buidling once stood here.

The House of Nature is the Slavkovský Forest visitor centre located in the village of Kladska. The centre focuses on the natural and cultural highlights of Slavkovsky Forest Protected Landscape Area. This is a joint project between the State Forest Agency and the Nature Conservation Agency of the Czech Republic.

Visitors can enjoy not only artworks but also film screenings dedicated to the life and work of the exhibiting artists. The combination of 19th-century architecture with modern art creates a unique atmosphere for an unforgettable cultural experience. The gallery’s curator is Alena Mrovcová.

Opening hours: daily 2:00–5:00 p.m.
