The most remarkable natural place of interest is the newly founded pond in Kamanec on the stream of Dolní Datyňka on the border with Václavovice village, from where the place can be reached. Even though it is an artificial water reservoir of 2005, its sensitive design and setting in the nature made it a pleasant or even romantic place of destination both for pedestrians and cycling tourists.
